What your day fishing with me will consist of.
Things to Bring
When you spend a day on the water with me, I'll have all your bait, tackle, and boat.
The boat is well equipped to find fish fast. My Ranger 620 VS is one of the top Multi
Species fishing boat available. Ranger, which was started by Forrest L. Wood has
been building legends, one at a time.
I use Humminbird electronics, and am powered by an Evinrude to get to the fish fast.
Our goal each day will be to have a great time. Usually a limit of fish, or some real
trophies that makes our trip a lifetime memory.
Bring a camera, a cooler for beverages, and a cooler for your catch.
You need to dress for the weather, being cold or wet isn't fun, let's hope the sun
shines on us.
When we set a date I'll give you a more detailed list of what to bring and as our date
approaches, I will verify our trip again a day or two in advance. The first time you'll talk
to me won't be at the boat landing.

Fishing reports for Green Bay and NE Wisconsin, including Green
Bay, Lake Winnebago, and Lake Michigan.
Well it has been a while since I last posted a report. Fishing has been a little more
difficult this summer and I haven't had to much to report. My trips have been limited.
But I have been out there and fishing at times has been pretty good with days of 6 to
8 fish pretty common and some good days of limits here and there. The fishing
pressure has really been up and that moves the fish out of some of there normal
areas.
For the most part I'm still using crawlers and in-line weights. Most of my fish have
been coming over 18-24 feet of water. The west shore has had the coolest water all
summer from all the summer wind we have had out of the northwest, but the east
shore has been pretty predictable. Years ago I never fished the southern part of
Green Bay this time of year, but the last couple years has had the large year classes
and those smaller Eyes of 15" - 18" have stayed put keeping the fishing pretty good
down south too.
My 2008 Ranger pictured on the left of this page is now for sale. It is loaded and
anyone who has fished with me knows how I like to use my electronics to find fish.
The price I will let this go for will surprise you. Give me a call and make an offer, you
will have one year warranty let on the engines too.
Well, keep searching for those elusive Walleyes and remember, catching 3 or 4 fish,
isn't a bad day, catching 5 or more is a pretty good day.
This season I am dedicating my fish catching to my Dad, may he rest in peace. He
passed away peacefully a few weeks ago at the age of 80. He had me reeling up
manual downriggers at age 4 and setting lines by time I was 6. Our equipment
wasn't the greatest, even our catching wasn't the best, but the time shared on the
water learning the values I grew up with will always remain. On his last fishing trip
with me last October, we found a school of Walleyes and caught our limit with almost
always doubles and triples, when we quite and stopped the engines to reel in our
remaining 3 lines, they had fish on them as well. It was his best day fishing ever. I
can only hope, that my last trip is like his. He once again has set high standards.
Rest easily Dad, and know that I'll keep catching them, just like you taught me.

| FEATURED PRODUCTS OF THE MONTH at my house |
| This girl from Tennessee really enjoyed catching this beauty, and I really enjoyed having her aboard. Her party caught lots of fish too. |
| This girl didn't really catch quality this day but quantity. We had a limit again and she and her boyfriend are set with Walleyes for the year. |
| A picture of me just out fishing. Nothing fancy, just another 10+ pound pig. He's out there yet waiting for maybe you to catch him. |
This is what Green Bay is giving
up mostly, nice 3 - 5 pound
walleyes that taste great. Limits
like this are common with me.

| My Buddy Joel and his wife had a great day on the water with a limit of fish like these. I think she was out for a tan but really enjoyed reeling them in. |
| Then the release looked great. Looks like a prop might have bit this Muskies nose. |
| Scott hoisting up a nice Muskie. I told his wife I caught it and she really had fun with Scott then but he did a nice job reeling this brute in. |
| Judy doing all she can to hold up a couple nice Kings. |
| This guys on the board twice, look how much he has grown since that big Walleye he caught just above. |
| Kent with this spring time giant, way to go Kent. A much nicer day in early May. |
| Jeff with a nice king on a really nice day. |
| A special fathers day for Kent, he fished with Trev and it was one after another. Trev just kept reeling them |
| Once in a while, on special request, have a shore lunch. Serve them hot and crispy with my special coatings. Nothing but good! |
| Here I've added a photo of a couple 12 pound plus Salmon. The fish are not the magnums but the fillets will taste great. |
| This photo of Randy in the #19 shirt has him hoisting a couple eaters. He also caught a wall hanger with me on a later trip. |
| A young friend catching his biggest Walleye ever, it's on his wall. |
| This little fellow has a Walleye almost as big as him, he reeled him in like a pro, nice and easy. |
| Another buddy holding a monster, this one we released for another day, must be about 12#'s or so. |
| Next is some friends of mine on the 75th birthday of Dan. Do you believe his wonderful wife caught that other whopper. |
| My Rig, a Ranger 620 Tournament series Multi Species fish catching machine. If you don't think the boat helps you catch fish, think again. |
| This Dr. from the Tennessee Titans puts athletes back together when they break. Today he was breaking up a school of Walleyes. |
| Here are just a few of their limit catch. I packed them up and sent some tasty fillets back to Nashville for them to eat. |
| Anthony came up from Los Angles to catch some Walleyes. He needed no help reeling them in either. |
| Here is what he caught, nice job Anthony, After fishing they caught a Monday night Packer game. |
| Matt and Rob joined me this spring and had a great time. Later, Matt e-mail me and said he and his 6 year old son went out and used the techniques he learned and caught 14 with his son. Nice job guys. Hope to see you for some Salmon action. |
