JT with one of several sunnies he caught yesterday! Observing his passion for fishing, casting his rod, reeling in his own fish, holding fish whereas before he was quite squirmish, and begging me to go fishing made me a proud dad.

Icing my first rainbow on a Sunday balmy winter day before the Super Bowl. A perfect day! We saw lots of trout swimming through but just a few biters on the X Zone 2″ panfish tube.

Always fun to come home to a new product to test and review! This Deeper Smart Sonar is a wireless, castable, CHIRP fish finder/depth finder. It generates its own Wi-Fi signal to connect directly to your smartphone. A little smaller than a tennis ball and weighs just 3 ounces. I will be testing this sonar unit out on ice this winter and open water this upcoming season and will give a full review.

Well I think that’s a wrap to the 2019 fishing season… It was a really fun year catching some nice fish, spending time with family and friends on the water, and exploring new lakes and streams. Ice fishing season prep begins!

A doubleheader! Brrr…a cold one this past Sunday afternoon but fish were biting, over 25 fish caught.
