You might recall the when we posted the original Peoria Carp Hunters video. Well Zachary Hoffman himself emailed me to say they’ve just released the sequel! I hope you brought a clean pair of underwear with you this morning because you’re about to ____ your ____. You’ve been warned!

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.

I first found Shawn Bichsel’s art on instagram so I asked him if he would let me post some here. As it turns out he also has his own blog, lines in the dirt, where you can find more fantastic art like the stuff below.

Hey guys! Shawn Bichsel here…aka @sbixel from Twitter and Instagram. Thanks for taking an interest in my iPad Fly Art. I just started doing these in December, when I found the Autodesk Sketchbook Pro.

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.

Storm Lures, Luhr Jensen, and Blue Fox have all announced new “UV Bright” additions to their line up. The new UV Bright finish promises to increase the lure’s visibility by reflecting more light, including ultra-violet light, and triggering aggressive strikes from predatory fish. All UV Bright lures have a reflective base, fluorescent paints, optical brighteners and lures covering the entire spectrum of visible colours.

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.
