Angling for Splake at the Edge of the World: Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula - OutdoorHub.com

Angling for Splake at the Edge of the World: Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula - OutdoorHub.com: "This little community on the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula may not be the end of the world, but as the saying goes, you can see it from here.

Five for 5 | Five Shallow Crankbait Colors for Every Situation

Five for 5 | Five Shallow Crankbait Colors for Every Situation: "It happened to me all the time as a teenager. I’d walk down the crankbait aisle of my favorite outdoors store and become totally overwhelmed by all of the different colors, sparkles and shiny finishes of the various baits. Sure, the shad-colored crankbaits looked just like a shad, but one had purple sparkles while the other ones had little gold sprinkles. Some even had pink glitter. I didn’t know the difference, but I did know one thing—I wasn’t about to miss out on a potential gold sprinkle/pink glitter combination shad crankbait bite, so I bought them! Before almost every tournament, I’d go to a fishing retailer and spend hundreds of dollars on a bunch of crazy-colored crankbaits. "

Outdoors: Reservoir smallmouth fishing now at its best - The State Journal

Outdoors: Reservoir smallmouth fishing now at its best - The State Journal: "We reservoir smallmouth anglers are a weird lot. We dangle tiny little hair jigs under bobbers in air so cold ice forms in the guides of our rods.

Frog Fishing Tips with Shaw Grigsby

Frog Fishing Tips with Shaw Grigsby: "You’ve been thinking about it all week. A single, solitary grass bed has engulfed your thoughts and inundated your mind throughout the workweek. You had to leave them biting last Sunday when it got dark. Instead of sleeping like the rest of your family, you remain awake, fervently flipping through fish picture after fish picture on your smart phone. Your eyes are bloodshot, your breathing is labored and you’re beginning to get the cold sweats. Surely it won’t hurt if you call in sick for just one day, right?"

FALL FOR SMALLMOUTH

FALL FOR SMALLMOUTH: "It is no secret that I love fishing for smallmouth bass.  And just like the leaves on the hardwoods at this time of year, the love affair blossoms in the fall.  

The lakes have quieted down and are mostly deserted now, and the bass are biting like crazy, so long as you keep a few important details in mind. "

Fall Patterns | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Fall Patterns | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "There are several concepts as to what triggers the tendency of bass to make major movements in the fall, but I have always considered two major players.
   The first factor is independent of all the others and this is simply the shortening of daylight periods. The second and more variable aspects are the cooling effects of the first major frontal passages and particularly the effect that cool nights or rain associated with cold fronts may have on water temperature."
