White bass a blast and good eating fish on light tackle.Yellow perch are excellent food fare. They also put up a nice little battle on light tackle. If it moves, they will strike it!
AmericanPressTravelNews -Lake Erie, N.Y.-Bob and Barb “On The Road Again” catching up with some fish!
A relatively small walleye pike, but this lake has some big-un’s too!Mike Sperry is more than a fishing guide. He also creates tackle that he sells for musky and all other gamefish.White perch are prolific in most upstate New York. Many different lures that target musky!Guide and fishing entrepreneur Mike Sperry was a great fellow to fish with. He was quite attentive to his boat mates.
I fished with Dave Barus and Mike Sperry of Chautauqua Reel Outdoors Guide & Tackle, LLC. on Lake Chautauqua-we were looking to pop a musky, but we ended up catching a mixed bag of yellow perch, walleye pike, and silver perch and bass. It was a great day of chit chat, hook photo and release, and a fine waterfront lunch with Dave and his friend and guide-Mike Sperry. Mike has a great personality, loves fishing, makes and markets his own lures and is very attentive to his anglers. His shops number is (716) 763-2947 you can get live bait and buy all manner of freshwater lures including his tried and true lures as well! His booking number for all freshwater species (crappie, perch, bass, walleye, musky and steelhead too, is: 716 969-4633 and he is a licensed fishing guide. www.chautauquareeloutdoors.com
My biggest Muskie, at Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame in Hayward, Wisconsin. Caught my first two muskies on a fly- 59 inches and 51 inches 2-casts, two muskie. Blew that 10,000 cast fable right out of the water! Had a great guide who knew where they lived in the rice, near Boulder Lake! Strip, strip 6-inch strips, bang!!!!! 6-pound smallmouth on the fly, fought harder, though!
APtravelnews-August 25th, Dallas, TX.–Barb and I travel by any mode possible in the U.S. Plane, train, motorcoach, car, bike, trek. Tip (1) However, wherever we go we allow day in for decompression and a day out for decompression. Long hours in the travel mode takes a toll on your body and mind, so pace your selves and always add enough time for your “fun” trip rushing here and there is not the best option for fun, its a guarantee of burn-out! Tip (2) Wherever you go, pay attention to the water; don’t drink it if it’s not from a sealed trust-able bottle-period! What you put in your mouth, even when brushing your teeth, or washing up can be bad for your health. Tip(3) don’t buy food from street vendors, health requirements and food spoilage in too many countries is often not up to the highest cleanliness standards-don’t play Russian Roulette with you food (just ask my mom what happened to her in Morocco when she against our warning ate from a street vendor-it wasn’t pretty, but she did survive! This also goes for foreign restaurants as well. Make sure a trusted local advises as to where you eat. Tip (4) Today, more than ever just don’t go where there is a high possibility of danger. Check online and with the State Department of where there is the most possibility of “bad actors.” Then just don’t go there! Tip (5) Avoid traveling by air unless there just is no other way! Barb and I have a plan on this. If we have to travel (have to for business or pleasure) we drive if the location is 1000 or less miles. So, if we have to travel (have to is the key word here) well more than a thousand miles we fly or if we can take the train. Always remember; flying is costly beyond the stupid airfare-car rental, the hassle of being on someone else’s time-clock! Tip (6) research before you travel, not when you get to your destination. This way you can adjust your schedules, find places that are a must-visit beyond the brochures and check out trip advisories and “real” travelers comments on what they experienced where you will be going to stay, play and feed your selves with!
Well, that’s enough to digest for now, but always remember when you leave your home you are always at the mercy of the world at large, just in a bigger way than the general safety of your home turf!
See the Redfish tail? Fishouflage Tervis Tumbler offers 4 different fresh and a saltwater fish to!
APtravelnews-December 10th, Port St Lucie, FL. Bob & Barb (we like these a lot)—-Camouflage-Yep! But for Tervis Tumblers its “Fishouflage” in and on their insulated tumbler glasses. Very neat item for gift giving too! What we like first of all is; the Tervis brand means insulated. We like our drinks cold when we want them cold and hot when we want them hot! The insulated tumblers help a lot in this regard. Now with a line of sportsmen and women friendly tumblers called “Fishouflage” they have sent a message that fishermen already know well-fish do camouflage themselves in and under the cover of trees and brush, weed and rock. The graphics show this wonderfully. You have to look a bit under the covers so to speak to see the Redfish, Bass, Crappie or Walleye hiding out in almost plain sight, yet “Fishouflaged” on a 16 ounce, Tervis Tumbler! Go Tervis on the internet and check out this fine companies offerings!
Bass, Crappie, Walleye and a Redfish are depicted in these new Tervis Tumblers show atop of my Coleman Portable Grill!
A Fishouflage Shirt-comfort to the “max” in a 100% Polyester material-smooth and soft, I can wear this sporty Muskie model almost anywhere!
APtravelnews-New Product Reviews–December 21st–Bob and Barb Product review–When I received my Fishouflage, 100% Polyester long sleeve shirt, it was of the Muskie design. The whole idea of these sporty shirts that come in Bass, Walleye, Redfish, European carp and the aforementioned Musky is that they show the fish in a camouflage mode in their respective habitat covers. When I put the shirt on and headed for a fishing club on Florida’s east coast, everyone I met liked the shirt and asked where I obtained it. After having checked Google, I found the shirts being sold at Bass Pro, Walmart and several other sporting goods outlets. So that’s the answer to anyone reading this. The shirts, while recently released, are now available just about anywhere. Especially, in the big box stores!
