An around-the-clock outdoorsman who’s quick with a story and a few laughs. Whether I’m in a fishing boat, a duck blind or a conference room. … Continue reading
The Short Net
The fight was epic. I set the hook into what I thought was a log. Then she shook her head. The rod thumped twice electrifying my hands. I didn’t say a word. I just started reeling. My mind raced through the checklist. Keep the line tight. Keep her head down. Get her to the boat … Continue reading
Detroit River Walleye Fishing
The Steel Mill. Fighting Island. Detroit is such a badass city even the fishing holes have hardcore names. I’m used to “country” fishing. Where hotspots have nicknames like bass cove or pike point. Where it’s not uncommon to see whitetails eating breakfast in the thin morning mist. Or listening to loons call back and forth … Continue reading
Fireworks, Cold Beer and Hammer-Handles
Every great fishing trip has three things: 1. Good Fishing 2. A go-to- lure 3. And a memorable theme song.

I’ve been fishing and … Continue reading

25% Walleye
Just settled in at my desk after another morning of chasing walleye on the Detroit River before work. Getting up at 4:30 to go fishing seems like a good idea until about 11 am. Good news, there’s enough coffee in my office to keep me awake. Bad news, the coffee tastes like shit. This was my fourth wally … Continue reading
Are Fish From the Detroit River Safe to Eat?
I’ve heard at least 100 different opinions about eating walleye caught out of the Detroit river. Most non-fishermen are disgusted by the idea. But most anglers seem alright with it. I personally don’t have an issue with eating a few walleye from the river per year. If you fry them up right you can hardly taste the PCB’s … Continue reading
