A fresh fish from sea puts on quite the show and twas was no different with these fish. Some will only wish to have a picture with a fish of this nature.

During my exploration of a coastal river system in the Pacific Northwest, I was thrilled to catch a couple of coho salmon, experiencing the thrill of the watershed firsthand.

A blue crystal clear hike in the lake awaited with big and bountiful wild rainbow with a fix for taking big bugs on the fly.

Colourful spawning Dollie took the gold capped grey midge and the fight was on what a absolute pleasure to land this gem

Some incredible multi-species fishing today! Got two beautiful 5lb Walleye to wrap up the day, a nice salmon on the jerkbait, an extremely aggressive rock bass, and the best smallmouth action I’ve ever experienced in my life. For a good 10 minutes I was pulling out 3 pounders every single cast from a single hole. I caught multiple smallies that were 3lbs 12oz, but still, somehow, no 4 pounder.

Once again, another Walleye after sunset, this time being a nice 4 pounder! The smallmouth fishing today was a bit slow, but I did manage two nice 3 pounders and a little one. The 9” glidebait did the trick for one of these smallmouth and drew in quite a few more bites. In total I fished for about 5 hours today and caught 4 fish.

Absolute behemoth of a Personal Best Walleye, 8lbs 10oz!!! I can’t believe I’m saying this but the goal for the next two weeks is a 10 pounder, and it’s crazy that it’s within my reach. On top of this beast of a fish, I caught 5 smallies, including one on my 9 inch glide bait, and it was the smallest one of the day. Got four 3 pounders with the biggest smallie weighing in at 3lbs 8oz.

Two gorgeous Wallies today after sunset that came in at 6lbs and 7lbs. Got a couple smallmouth as well with most of them being babies. Lost one good walleye at the end of the session that was probably a 5 pounder. My trout net is way to small for these guys and I was bound to loose one eventually.
