  • 2012 MASTER ANGLER Highlights
    2012 MASTER ANGLER Highlights Time once again to celebrate successful anglers in In-Fisherman’s Master Angler Awards Program. Since 1975, readers have submitted records of catches of North America’s most popular fish species, by mail and on the company website, in-fisherman.com. This year, the commit- tee granted 544 awards, a substantial increase from last year. Clearly, readers are enjoying the easy on-line application process. In In-Fisherman, we’ve been highlighting outstanding smallmouth bass fisheries and this species dominated the program with 88 lunkers. Largemouth bass followed (68), with pike (61), muskie (41), and rainbow/steelhead (36), and walleye (33) next. Muskie entries have never before topped those for walleyes. To find hot lakes and prime times to fish them, peruse these records. For example, Bob Daly of Indiana has con- sistently picked a prime time to target coho salmon in Alaska, bagging the two biggest this year as well as the larg- est one in 2011, all from the Cinder River. Anglers landed three pike of 50 inches or more, fish of a lifetime: one from Alaska, one from famous Reindeer Lake and one from Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area. And speaking of massive toothies, consider Ryan Marjama’s 58½-inch muskie from Leech Lake, Minnesota, caught on a sucker rig! For the scoop on this deadly pre- sentation, check the new In-Fisherman Pike & Muskie Guide on news stands or available on our website. On a smaller scale, give props for Arthur Huttemeyer Sr.'s 31-inch pickerel from Lake Hopatcong in New Jersey.

  • Floating Bait Rig for Catching Trout the Best Method for Catching Trout Here Is Known As the Floating Bait Rig
    Floating Bait Rig for Catching Trout The best method for catching trout here is known as the Floating Bait Rig. We recommend this setup. The sliding sinker allows the trout to pick up the bait and not feel the weight, which might make the fish spit out the hook. The size of the weight depends on the time of year. In winter, use lighter weights because the trout are closer to shore (warmer water). In summer, use the ½ oz. weight because the fish are out in deeper (cooler) water. 4 lb. line 2 - 4 lb. line 1/8 to 1/2 #12 or 14 snap swivel #14 to 18 oz. sliding treble hook sinker The most important part of this setup is the length of leader. During winter, the length should be 2 ft. In spring and summer, the length should be 3 ft. and in summer, it should be 4 to 5 ft. Changing conditions make it important for the bait to float where the fish are. The best way is to ask the Ranger what length is best. More fish are caught on nightcrawlers than any other bait here at the lake. Use ½ of a nightcrawler and wrap the cut end around a size 16 bronze treble hook. Gently blow up the loose end with a worm blower. Put worm in water to be sure that you have put in enough air so that it floats. The other option is to put the worm on 2 of the 3 hooks and put a plain white marshmallow on the 3rd hook.

  • The Guide's Forecast © July 4, 2014
    The Guide's Forecast - volume 16 issue number 27 Northwest Oregon and Washington’s most complete and accurate fishing forecast Forecasting for the fishing week of July 4th – July 10th, 2014 Oregon Fisheries Update: NOW IS THE TIME to prep yourself for a RECORD return of salmon on the lower Columbia. Don’t go into this fishery thinking it’s still going to be easy! Go to our tech report page at http://www.theguidesforecast.com/techrpt.shtml and order your Buoy 10 tech report for home study. You’ll need every advantage you can to outshine the competition you’ll have this year. Good luck! Willamette Valley/Metro – Fishery managers met on Tuesday, extending the lower Columbia River salmon fishery from July 4th – July 7th in anticipating of high interest over the holiday weekend. The chinook run is expected to come in as predicted but the sockeye return was upgraded significantly and remains open to catch and keep through July 31st. Shad fishing is about done in the lower Willamette. Catch-and-release sturgeon fishing remains a decent option in Portland Harbor. There is almost no effort for springers in the warm water of the lower Willamette. With hundreds of summer steelhead crossing the Falls daily, fishing on the upper Willamette in the Eugene/Springfield stretch known as the Town Run has been improving. Fly rodders using sink-tip lines to swing brightly-colored flies are hooking up regularly. Fly fishing for trout is fair to good on the McKenzie River with best results occurring evenings. Caddis patterns are effective with Green Drakes and Golden Stones fading on the upper river.

  • Archived Weekly Fishing Reports for April, May and June 2017
    April 6, 2017 Michigan Department of Natural Resources Fisheries Division RECREATIONAL FISHING REPORT Another round of snow and colder temperatures will once again put a damper on fishing conditions but a warm up by the weekend should help. Windy conditions have kept anglers off the Great Lakes. Many rivers are running high and fast. Anglers will want to exercise caution on the rivers and when walking along the river banks. SOUTHEAST LOWER PENINSULA Lake Erie: Boat anglers were getting some bigger walleye in Brest Bay. Most were using large crank baits, reef runners and husky jerks in 14 to 20 feet. Huron River: Steelhead anglers have taken fish on spawn, wax worms or flies. Detroit River: Had good walleye fishing in the lower river for those jigging and drifting plastics and shiners. The fish averaged 15 to 19 inches and a few limit catches were reported. Perch were caught in shallow waters. Try the canals and marinas with small shiners under a slip bobber. Lake St. Clair: Conditions have not been ideal so not many anglers were out. The wind and rain have muddied the water in the canals, marinas and near shore. Perch and panfish had been caught before the weather changed. St. Clair River: There is no more ice coming down the river. Anglers were trying for walleye but the action was very slow. Shore anglers at Port Huron were getting salmon, walleye and even a few smelt off the wall. Port Austin: The marina is ice free but the docks at the boat launch were not in yet.
