It looks like there could have been a new record sheep head in Ontario! Our friend Mike caught himself a massive 22.2 pounder back in 2008, that set the record and now Aaron Shirley (who some of you may recognize from such shows as Getting Hooked with Aaron And Barry) caught an even bigger one in the same area, tipping the uncertified scales at 27.5 pounds (12.5 kg)!
Awesome catch and release Aaron!

I certainly have no problems with guns, but shooting a fish before it gets a chance to spawn can’t be good for pike populations.

This exotic fish may be native to southeast asia, but would you believe there’s one place in the United States where you can catch one right along side a largemouth bass. While they’re most commonly found here in aquariums many misinformed owners don’t realize they can grow up to 40″ [...]
The fishing season is off to a fantastic start this year! Last weekend marked the opening of trout season here in Ontario and though I was only able to get out yesterday, my friends and I still managed to have a fantastic day on the river. We woke up early [...]
We haven’t done a caption contest in a while, mostly because it takes a very special picture or video to inspire us. Today we have a video so wild we couldn’t even describe it! Hopefully you’ll have better luck though. The best description of this video left in the comments [...]

My XTRATUF II boots have been the footwear of choice for winter fishing this year and they’ve been fantastic on every outing. I’m sad that they’ll be put away in the next few weeks as summer approaches, but I’m very happy knowing they’re ready and waiting for next winter. When [...]
