Portable Aerator for Fish & Bait by Fish Food Tackle
The Fish Food Tackle Portable Aerator is ideal when you must keep your bait or fish alive. Whether it be minnows or small fish, or for aquarium emergencies…this fish aerator will fill in nicely.

How to Rig & Fish Creek Chubs
This is a continuation article series on how to properly fish creek chubs and rig them properly. You can read about how to trap & fish creek chubs here. Creek chubs, as I’ve talked about many times in both articles and our podcast, are great big-fish baits. They’re usually big and feisty, and for various reasons fish just love them. The common misconception of fishing creek chubs is to think that just because you have them on the line, fish are just going to swarm to them. That’s just not the case. The key is to be ON the fish, THEN the bait matters. But at the end of the day, that’s the case with all fishing, isn’t it? So
Fish Cleaning Station Dos & Don’ts – Don’t Be That Guy…
It took some time, maybe even decades, but boaters have really figured out the dos and don’ts at the boat ramp. We all have seen it, that guy who backs down the ramp and unloads all his stuff and starts undoing everything. It’s definitely not a common thing to see anymore. Maybe those guys have gotten enough verbals over time and learned if you want to survive to back your boat down a ramp again that you do not do that. However, now I’m seeing a new irritating thing that needs to be addressed. This one isn’t as stressful or time-sensitive, but for a guy like me who makes his living as a full-time fisherman, time is money. So before

Waterfowl Hunting Etiquette 101 – If You Don’t Know, You’re Probably That Guy
As someone who’s been passionate about waterfowl hunting all my life, I’ve learned a thing or two along the way about hunting partners. We can all relate, we’ve all had “blind dates” that go bad, while others start lifelong friendships. That’s the beauty of the outdoors if you’re a social guy like me, there’s always a good time to be had if you’re surrounded by the right people. And the right people don’t come easy. I’ve hunted with probably hundreds of people through the years, and I’m not a guide either. Just an avid freelancer who likes sharing my passion with others. It may actually be a flaw in my personality…I just seem to give people chances and always the
What Dove Hunting Gear You Need to Succeed
When it comes to dove hunting gear, it’s really not rocket science. Dove hunting can be as simple or complex as you want it to be (I’m usually leaning towards the latter). You can lay along a treeline, fenceline, or even a ditch. You name it, if there are doves flying over it can work. Then there’s the more complex side of dove hunting. It involves dove decoys, blinds or backrests, mojo doves, etc. While it’s not entirely necessary to have a good dove hunt, it can certainly help. So with that being said, I spend a lot of my time hunting doves in the fall. I kind of feel like I have to, they taunt me at my house
Hunting Snow Geese Over Water 101
It’s that time of year for me. I’m done with winter blues and I’m starting to gear up for hunting spring snow geese. I’ve been writing recently about the truths of snow goose hunting, as well as the 2nd installment…and it got me thinking about how the heck I’m going to get it done this spring??? Snow geese are kicking people’s tails up and down the flyway this year on a consistent basis, and I’m seeing a pattern to those having better luck. They’re usually having better shoots in weather (such as fog) or hunting migrators over water. It got me thinking about what’s worked for us in the past, and this year, we’ll have to be perfect to
