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

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?

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

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.

Helle Yeah! New Helle Alden is Sharp

Helle is a Norwegian based knife maker well known for their superb craftsmanship. Since its founding in 1932, Helle’s philosophy hasn’t changed: quality handcrafted knives made by skilled craftsmen. Both the blade and the handle of every knife are handcrafted by a skilled Norwegian craftsman, some with decades of experience, making each knife truly one-of-a-kind.

Helle Alden – MSRP: $119

This knife features a 106mm (4.17in) long blade made of stainless Sandvik 12C27 steel with full tang. The handle of the Alden is made of curly birch and includes a small finger guard with two stainless steel fittings. Weighing in at 145g (5.1oz), the Alden is well balanced and designed to fit the hand perfectly.

I’ve eyed up a beautiful cork-handled Helle Hellefisk filet knife for a while now. Every time I pick up a Helle knife I’m always impressed by the construction and I’m blown away at the prices. I’ve consistently seen knives for twice as much that didn’t even look half as good.

Helle Hellefisk – $79.95

STORMR Jackets – Defy The Elements

STORMR jackets are billed as an adaptation of the wetsuit for land. Which makes sense because their made from the same material that divers and surfers have used for years. The exterior of the STORMR jacket is a neoprene rubber that protects you from the elements, and the interior is mirco-fleece lined to keep you warm and cozy on the inside. All seams are glued, stitched and coated with an exterior liquid tape, just like a real wetsuit. Of course the zipper is waterproof as well, and the neoprene flap ensures full suit integrity.

It’s hard to tell how much pocket space the jacket really has, but if the STORMR really is built to “defy the elements” it could make for a fantastic wading jacket.

STORMR USA – Price: TBA

The Kodiak Project Trailer

I know we’ve been posting a lot of fly fishing videos recently, but you have to admit they’re some of the most impressive, beautiful and heart pounding videos you’ve ever seen. Well, this next video is going make your heart explode.

Three fly fishermen (Conway Bowman, Kirk Deeter and Chris Santella) head up to Kodiak Island, Alaska to fish a legendary river that’s a bit like a unicorn – everyone has heard about it, but no one seems to have seen it, been there or fished its shallow waters. Along with local guide, Trent Deeter, the crew embarks on one of the most epic and prolific steelhead fishing trips of their lives.
