Its been 30 days since my last post. I have no idea where the time went but felt like it was time well spent. It has finally started to feel like Spring here in Virginia. The rain has calm down and actually it has been dry for over a week, so thats a new record [...]
The ground hog did not see his shadow, can we trust him? Seems like he's right most years so I'm looking forward to a early Spring and warmer temps. This past week's weather was awesome. Air temps in the 60's and low 70's until today when a cold front pushed in. I took advantage of [...]
Well a lot hasn't changed since 2018. The start of 2019 has been very wet and cold. January is always a tough month for fishing. You have to work hard for them with the cold water temps this time of year but you can't catch them sitting on the couch. I wish I had more [...]
Will this wet weather ever stop? I surely hope so, it has rained every weekend since mid November. Last weekend we received 12 inches of snow, now thats gone all at once because its raining again. We only have a couple weeks left in 2018 and this year was a historic one with this weather. [...]
November hasn't been as sweet as some in the past. Mainly due to the rain fronts we seem to have every week as soon as conditions approve. I swear it has rained once a week since April this year. This is the wettest year on record but I definitely have never seen a Fall with [...]
Well Punxsutawney Phil wasn't joking when he didn't see his shadow. The past two weeks has felt like March not April. Fished in the snow two days last week. It finally seems like Spring has finally sprung and plans to stick around this time. Temps in the 70's and 80's the past few days. The [...]
In the world of musky fishing, musky hold all the cards. They decide who is going to be a hero or a zero. Some clients catch one on their first try, others grind it out till it happens and I believe a lot just give it up. Musky fly fishing is not for everyone and [...]
Virginia went from drought to flood in a snap. Rain from earlier this month really helped the remaining pre spawn bite for musky. With flows higher and water clarity being green, musky do not have as much time to think about wether to eat or not. Over the past five guided trips we have had [...]
Winter is getting closer to being over and it brings a smile to my face. It was a unusual Fall and Winter. Really low flows and crystal clear water made my muskie season a lot tougher than normal. We are in one of the best months now to catch a musky with the pre-spawn bite. [...]
The three weeks of arctic air has ended! The past few days have been in the high 50's or low 60's. That was a long cold spell and just when I thought the rivers would be free of ice, it would get in the teens at night again. Good news we have had some moisture [...]
