by Chris Ritchie | Oct 16, 2017 | Fishing, Fishing Subjects, Lure reviews, Rigging

I get questions regularly about what baits I use and my rod and reel set up. A lot of times, I get a crazy look back from people when I show them all of my tackle or tell them what I think the fish “might” be biting on. Most people don’t realize how many options are...

When not fishing, I enjoy scouring Google Maps, Google Earth, Bing, and other sites in order to find out of the way areas to scout and hopefully find productive water.  When looking at a river on any online mapping program, I look for key features within the...
