Below is a really good comparison of Garmin LiveScope Vs Humminbird Mega 360 technologies. If you are in the market for one of these (or possibly both) then definitely spend a few minutes and watch this video. It is not an in-depth video, but it does compare them nicely.

Is the Teckel Bladewaker really going to be a game-changer? To me and a lot of other folks, it looks like a chatterbait copy. The Bladewaker is not available yet, so no one has had the opportunity to fish it. I have watched the video posted below and I can say that if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it’s a duck.
This is Bladewaker
So, what makes this so… ...Read More
I’m late to the game, but I’m sure you have heard about the wobble head jig also referred to as a swing head jig. My first encounter with these swing head jigs was during my recent trip to Mexico. I caught my biggest bass and personal best bass on a wobble head jig. The Bass weighed in at 8 pounds and 13 ounces.
If you have not read about my trip to Mexico, you… ...Read More
I think the folks at YETI have lost their minds. I bet I could find a lot of people who would agree with me. If you feel that spending $70 bucks on a bucket with lid is worth it, then go for it. More power to you. I will tell you what, hit up any restaurant and they will give you buckets with lids for free. If you are really desperate, and I mean really desperate, head on over… ...Read More
I burnt my hands to a crisp in Mexico and when I got back I purchased a pair of Filthy Anglers Fingerless Fishing Gloves. The sun is no joke, but I’m done with sunscreen. I don’t want to have to remember to keep applying sunscreen every few hours. I just don’t care for it on my skin while I’m fishing. Call me paranoid.
What I was looking for… ...Read More
While surfing YouTube for random videos and whatnot, I came across an aluminum boat comparison. While not completely an apples to apples comparison, it was more like Fuji apple vs a Gala apple comparison. This particular video compared a 17-foot Alumacraft vs a 17-foot Bass Tracker.
There are a few things to make note of. Memphis Boat Center is an Alumacraft… ...Read More
I did it, I picked a couple of Boing Lures topwater baits. My sick obsession with fishing topwater baits has me on the search for perfection. Normally I am a topwater popper kind of guy. My go-to lure is a Lobina Rio Rico. This time I was in search of a walk-the-dog style bait, and I came across Boing Lures on the Tackle Warehouse website.

If you love fishing, then you need to add Quabbin Reservoir Fishing to your bucket list. Back in the day, we fished Quabbin from boats that we could rent, fun times for sure. My goal is to get back out there with someone who knows what they are doing, and maybe then I can catch some decent fish. If you decide you want to get out to the Quabbin reservoir, click the link… ...Read More
