Cole: Canada’s Youngest Pro Angler

img00159.jpgAt least, he really knows what he is talking about. I was able to spend a couple of hours fishing with Cole at a camp I was speaking at. We did some worm fishing off some docks at the camp and tied into some Rock Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Perch and Sunfish. I was impressed with the way Cole casted his line out into the water. It was almost like he was trained by a pro. Sure enough, he told me he had once fished with Bob Izumi on one of Mr. Izumi’s fishing shows. Lucky guy!img00160.jpg

Anyway, Cole, I would fish again with you anytime! If you come back up to Huntsville let me know – we’ll head out to the nearest lake in “The Lowe”. I enjoyed fishing with you.

For everyone else – take a ‘youngster’ fishing sometime SOON!

Canada:Even The Perch Are Bigger

Canada:Even The Perch Are Bigger

perch_fishing.jpgIf there is one kind of fishing I take for granted it has to be perch fishing. Usually, if I hook into one on our local lake I will quickly reel it in and share with it my disgust about wasting my time. People have told me they are great eating. I don’t believe them. Anytime I have hooked into a perch they have been near significant weedbeds and in my mind the perch will taste, well…weedy! Apparently, I am wrong. Continue Reading
