The Great Salmon Run it is truly an epic event. Millions of salmon fight their way upstream, returning to the river locations they were born. On the way they must not only contend with strong currents, but they must get past hundred of hungry grizzly bears!
“In another TV first, underwater cameras record the ingenuity and fancy footwork they use to collect dead salmon from the bottom of deep pools.”
One thing that is seriously lacking in this world is a good looking fishing shirt. Enter David Allen, fisherman and tattoo artist extraordinaire. Two of our favourite things, tattoos and fishing, together in one tasty t-shirt!
With any luck, Dave will be coming up the design for the next Fishing
Fury shirt, stay tuned!
It’s been over a week since I returned from New Jersey, the so called Armpit of America. Before I had visited Jersey I’d heard several stories about the filth and the smell, and I’m not just talking about the freakshows. I flew into Newark International, and at first glance Jersey lived up to the stories I had heard. After a week in Jersey, my opinion of the state changed greatly.
I worked all week, but as soon as the weekend arrived, I woke up early and took a 45 minute drive down highway, exiting at a small town name Hope. Ironically I was hoping to catch some muskie. I met up with a fellow Muskies Inc member name Cal, and after a quick introduction we headed out to Mountain Lake. When we arrived at the lake I was amazed how small it was. A lake this size I would usually refer to as a pond, but regardless of its size, Cal assured me that there muskies here that exceeded 50 inches.
One look at his Jeep and boat and I knew we’d get along just fine.
Whats stranger then a zombie Jesus fish tattoo? How about a tattoo of a shark in a pool of blood, eating a baby, eating shark fin soup – placed in the armpit.

We packed it in after an hour and headed to a nearby bar called “The Bomb” in Balmertown to grab some food and drink. The beer was good, but the food was pretty greasy and it left a lot to be desired as our last meal before the trip. I don’t think we talked much about food on our last trip, mostly because we didn’t bring any, and the same held true this year. In true Fishing Fury spirit, we we’re to become one with the lake over the next week. Aside from a single case of beer, that miraculously turned up empty on the fourth night, everything we would consume would come from the lake and the fish would be cleaned and cooked by the same hands that caught them, and there is no meal more satisfying than that.
