Here’s the perfect boat to get out and catch some perch, walleye, and bass. 2010 Lund Mr Pike 16 with a 40 hp Mercury, bow mounted electric motor, 2 locators, and a custom cover. The trailer is a heavy duty custom Eagle manufactured model. The boat has a new battery and is in excellent condition. Lund and Mercury quality will keep you on the water for years to come and put lots of fish in the freezer. $16,500 or best offer. Call me at 9204956551 and I’ll get you in touch with the owner.

Got to fish with these guys for a whole week. Haynes and Briggs are tournament anglers fishing the Bassmaster Junior Series from Gulfport MS. Grampa got them out in the right spots and they took over from there. Being that they have been consistently winning tournaments, National Champions, and Angler of the year Awards it didn’t take long to hook into some big Door County smallmouth. Then a trip to a private pond saw some largemouth bass on buzzbaits and wacky worms. Great week of making Dad Matt and Gramps proud. . . . . . .

Off the ice for the year and not time to get the boat out so watching auto racing, one of my favorite pastimes. Today it just happens to be NHRA drag racing at Gainesville Raceway in Florida. And who do the announce is attending the show today? None other the Don “Big Daddy” Garlits. If you sat in high school in the 60s, and 70s reading Hot Rod Magazine ( remember the little ones) Don Garlits was your hero. Remember all the Swamp Rat dragsters, the things he brought to the sport, blowers, small front tires, rear engines, and a lot more. At 94 years old he, still a racers hero to at lot of us. Thanks “Big Daddy

Just a week until the Green Bay Boat Show 2026, where I'll be sharing expertise on Walleye fishing in the Bay of Green Bay, Perch fishing around Sturgeon Bay, and the thrill of collecting vintage fishing gear. Check the schedule below for seminar times on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. As the weather shifts, it's time to gear up for open water fishing and make the most of the new season. Great time to check out what’s new in boats and motors. Hope to see you there. . . . . . . . .

Today I’m going to retire and old hunting friend, it’s my old old orange hunting jacket. I’ve been delaying this for several years. But, you can see the cuffs are worn out, one pocket has come unattached, and the lining is worn out. It’s still hard to let go of a trusty friend who’s been to Wyoming, Missouri, Pennsula Park for the muzzle loader hunt, all 3 several times. It’s been with me to all my Door County rifle and muzzle loader hunts. This jacket has the best pockets which carried my peanut butter and jelly and ham sandwich’s to the hunt faithfully each year. They don’t have huge pockets in the newer jackets. As you can see it’s got a back tag holder on the back which we don’t need any more. And, it’s got a handy sling holder on the shoulder to keep my rifle sling from sliding off that came off my Dads hunting jacket. I’ll put it on my new jacket because it works so well. My new jacket has be waiting for me to do this for probably 5 years now, but still hard to part with such a trusty friend. I won’t be throwing out the old one, it will hang in mylog cabin with all the other jackets, so I can remember all the good days it provided me
