How To Keep Minnows & Bait Alive Properly All Year

How often have you gone fishing, only to come home and find your bait is already half dead? Or even worse, when you leave them overnight and they all die? Nasty. As anglers, we’ve all been there. Replacing bait constantly sucks, and heaven forbid you soil a container on accident; you have to replace that too. I get it, it’s expensive. But what if you actually took the effort to keep your minnows and bait alive all year? It’s really not that hard when you look into it…I will explain. How Do I Keep Minnows Alive? Shad, Fatheads, Creek Chubs, Shiners,

Bait Tank

How To Start a Homemade Freshwater Bait Fish Tank

If you’re an angler, the thought has certainly crossed your mind at some point or another…what if I had my own bait tank??? Depending on where you live, buying fresh bait repeatedly for your fishing outings can certainly add up.  Obviously, a bait tank will be a place to store all leftovers and the like, so you always have fresh bait when you go fishing again. Or, it could be that you catch your own bait.  Up in the north country, we catch creek chubs often for our walleye fishing, and keeping them alive in itself can be a challenge. I’ve

Best Mobile Ice Fishing House for Serious Anglers

It’s early Sunday afternoon in Lake Country. The football game is on, the beer is flowing, and maybe a bobber goes down…or not. Does this sound like a scenario for you? While I’m not knocking a man’s version of a good time, this is often the scenario of those who own permanent ice fishing houses all over the Midwest. You can usually spot them in large communities, more often it seems than not. And this community doesn’t build until almost mid-winter, too. Personally, I don’t drink on the ice. I’m not against anyone doing so, I just hit the ice to

Snow Goose Hunting

The Truths About Snow Goose Hunting

Snow goose hunting is a love/hate relationship.  Don’t get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for the bird.  Their ability to make you look SMALL at times, is where the hate comes in. It reminds me a lot of musky fishing.  Some days you throw big baits all weekend for nothing…and other times it all seems to just come together.  Snow goose hunting is no different. To show my age, I’ve been snow goose hunting on my own for 30 years.  Started much earlier with Dad, but my passion for hunting snow geese really took off when I was in
