Video: The 249 South

March 2nd, 2015: Cold Hands

We are imperfect creatures. I am imperfect. I am stubborn. I am also determined. I approached a slow shallow section of creek laden with what could have been hundreds, literally hundreds of brook trout, from upstream as I hiked my foot prints back downstream from where I’d came. I passed this …

Driftless Love

January 1st-11th: Still Fishing

For those of you wondering if I’m still alive trust me I am. Just happen to get caught up in a backyard marriage, the start of school and continuing my day job. I also upped the number of hours I spend on my bike to prepare for cycling races and the …

SE Minnesota & Gill Lice

So the photo’s from last week’s Brook trout adventure turned out to be evidence of Salmincola edwardsii also known as Gill Lice as Cam noted on my last post. This parasite is Salvenius specific and does not affect Rainbow or Brown trout. I emailed staff at the SE Minnesota Fisheries office …

March 14th, 2013: My Day Off

I had been getting the itch to fish all week and by Wednesday it had become too much, some vacation time was requested and with that I put together a plan that would have seen me hiking into a remote area I’ve never seen. Plans change, even the best laid …

I don’t think I’ve been this anxious about anything regarding fishing, I want the winter season so damn bad I can practically feel my toes going numb from sitting in the same spot for hours trying to take tiny brown trout on a #20 Midge.  Everyone has their favorite time …
