Hello, my name is Bob, and I've been a fisherman for 35 yrs. Sounds like an intro. for a twelve step program doesn't it? They think we fishermen are addicted, sick, and twisted. Who else would stand shivering in the rain, feet wet, hands aching, making one more cast for a one in 10,000 chance at a Musky? (Get it? The fish of 10,000 casts) Yeah, I have a problem, but they say admitting it is the first step.

Anyway, about 10 yrs ago my friend Dave Wamboldt and I met while working together at Pike Creek Outfitters. Mike and Barb Hines, the owners were ready to retire, do some traveling, and start enjoying life instead of getting up in the dark as they both did for many years. I learned a great deal from them and they always treated me like family, and still do.

What you will find here is people who know what they're talking about, and everything you need for Lake Michigan. Dave is the Perch Guru. He even pours his own worms, we call them the "Wammer Slammers". I would be up the creek, to put it politely, without Dave. Did I mention he's got way more experience than me because he's way older? That's funny, I mention it to him all the time.

Thanks, Bob

fishin' report 11-9-12

My lone reader told me I haven't posted in a while, so here goes.  Not much has happened in the harbor, fish action wise, since the big storm from out east.  Finally starting to pick up a fish here and there.  Randy caught 3 browns and a bluegill two days ago.  He's really going to some finesse techniques by using a bobber that is just big enough to support the small tube jig.  I'm guessing that the few fish that are around are so finicky, that if they feel much resistance they drop the bait.  Haven't heard anything about rainbows, and they are way overdue.  Roy has been out in his boat a couple of times and really hasn't conected with much since his bonanza day.  As usual, if I hear anything worth mentioning, I'll pass it along, but until then these posts may be few and far between.  You wouldn' like me to start blowing smoke up you know where like some people's reports would you?  Later- Bob
