Normally the shark always gets the last laugh, but not this time!

RIP Whitney Houston

The world lost one of its most influential singer/song writers yesterday. Whitney Houston wasn’t a fisher, but I did manage to find a fishing video that features some of her music.

Tranced-out Tuesdays

Active Child is a musical project by choirboy-turned-indie-pop musician Pat Grossi. This track, titled Hanging On, is very spacey and ethereal, but magically incorporates the feeling of the untouched natural world. Not to mention some fantastic fly fishing footage.

Faceless – Plan B

This hot new video from the girls of Faceless Fishing comes wrapped in a delicious track from Toronto’s own Zed’s Dead. I’m seriously jealous.

Behold The Wind Powered Auto Jigger

Jonathon Marshall — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:38:55 +0000

Modeled after Duchamp’s 1913 ready made, Bicycle Wheel, this auto-jigger harnesses the power of the wind. A silver dinner bell rings when a fish bites. Perfect for catching panfish and Dadaists. Debuts Sunday January 29th, 2012 at the Art Shanty Projects.

The Art Shanty Project is a four-week art show slash social experiment inspired by traditional ice fishing huts. The show is open until February 5th, and is taking place on Medicine Lake, Plymouth, Minnesota.

Maybe wind power isn’t your thing. Well how about steam power?

Wake Up to Owl Jones’ Dating Video

Jonathon Marshall — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:35:03 +0000

The one-and-only Owl Jones is looking for love*, so he’s made a short video about himself. Yes ladies, this man is available. I wonder if April Vokey is single…

While you’re thinking about Owl Jones you should know that he’s running a fly tying contest where you could win a new Wind River 5wt. fly rod and a $25 Gift Card to J. Stockard Fly Tying. Check out his post for more information.

Owl’s video is actually a brilliant parody of the eHarmony dating video.

New Winter World Record Live Release Walleye Caught- ON TAPE!

Jonathon Marshall — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 03:56:21 +0000

When you’re filming for a tv show you want to catch fish as often as possible, and as big as possible. Well things could not have gone better during this filming of No Excuses Outdoor TV in Saskatchewan. Throughout the video they’re landing nice walleye pretty consistently, but at about nine and a half minutes a 14 pound mega-walleye shows up for his 15 minutes of fame.

The fish was caught on a PK Lures PK spoon, and the man who caught it is Tim Geni. You can check out more great videos on PK lures website and you can read more about this world record catch on the Saskatchewan Tourisum website.
