The DNR has confirmed that a new state record-length lake trout was caught in May.

I’m a little proud of this video. Any feedback is welcome, even if it’s “don’t post your own videos” lol Not trying to shill my own stuff but I'm making vids for my own entertainment and figured we need some content here anyway

Let’s just say that if I need to sustain myself this way I would need to dramatically improve my skill at this sort of fishing.

It’s soothing though.

Here is a 15-pound chinook salmon I caught trolling in the mouth of the Alsea River in Oregon this last fall.

I've currently been trying to do some winter steelheading in coastal rivers in Oregon. Looking for some tips, tricks, and stories anyone has to share about steelheading anywhere, not just in Oregon!

Wisconsin, Rock River, Indianford dam.

Must have dropped my lure on top of it. No live(or otherwise) bait. I think the lure is called a " jitterbug". But I'm not sure.

Quite a nice fishing session today with 20+ graylings with the pictured one between 42/45 cm. Nicest I caught so far.

I fished in a small local river called « La Lesse » in Belgium.

Codie Carlson was bowfishing Plum Creek on Sunday, June 29, when he brought in a new state-record flathead catfish. While bowfishing recently in Monroe County, an angler from Newport, Michigan, caught a new state-record fish: a flathead catfish weighing in at 64.46 pounds and measuring 45 inches!

Codie Carlson was bowfishing Plum Creek in the early-morning hours of Sunday, June 29, when he brought in the record-breaker.

This fish beats the previous state-record flathead catfish — 53.35 pounds, 43 inches — caught in 2022 by Lloyd Tanner, of Hobart, Indiana, on the St. Joseph River in Berrien County.

While bowfishing recently in Monroe County, Codie Carlson of Newport, Michigan, caught a new state-record flathead catfish. DNR fisheries biologist John Buszkiewicz, who works out of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources’ Lake Erie Fisheries Management Unit, verified Carlson’s new state-record fish. Buszkiewicz and his crew may have even caught this exact fish during a survey in the same location in 2020; at the time, the fish caught weighed 55 pounds and measured 43 inches.

Carlson, a self-described "true fishoholic," said, "I thought I was about to shoot a channel catfish for dinner. Turns out, I guess we do have flathead catfish in these waters." source: MIDNR Email newsletter

Pro Pilkki 2 is the gold standard for multiplayer ice fishing games and has been around for a long time. It’s time to ask the real questions about this Finnish masterpiece. Here is an interview with the developers, Mikko Happo and Janne Olkkonen from Procyon.

Officials with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services announced the change Monday while publishing the annual Eat Safe Fish Guide, a document that identifies waterways where fish are contaminated with unsafe levels of toxic chemicals.

I was out this weekend and the river was blown out. But a good ole pile took pity on me and jumped on the line. This time of year they often have red sore disease on them and that is what you are seeing on his flank, thankfully most of them survive without too much trouble.

So I will be going there from a neighbouring country :) I’m going for pike, zander, perch or cat-fish whatever will be on. Funny thing is I’m reuniting with one of the few alive relatives I still have who happens to be a former fishing champion so I hope to learn some things as fishing is quite difficult these days. Anyhow I’m super hyped for tomorrow :)
