Why we Bass Fish in January

Kent Klewein | January 29, 2010 Read This Post...

Well it looks like we’ll be getting another winter wonderland storm tonight and tomorrow.  I’m down for the snow and sledding with my boy as long as I can still get out and fish on Sunday. It’s too early to call now, but people up here seem to think we’ll get at least five inches [...]

Noontootla Creek Farms Sunday

Kent Klewein | January 25, 2010 Read This Post...

I had the pleasure of guiding Carolyn Emery this past Sunday out at Noontootla Creek Farms.  We hooked into twenty fish, which kept us in the action pretty much the entire day. If any women fly fishermen are looking for someone to fish with, I’d highly recommend shooting Carolyn a message on facebook.  She’s really [...]

Fly South – One Killer Fly Shop

A while back I posted somewhere on Facebook, or even maybe here about a spectacular fly shop I visited up in Nashville, TN.  That fly shop was Fly South, and I highly recommend you checking it out in person next time you find yourself in their area.

The moment I stepped foot into the [...]

Check out this bass and striper fly I designed last year for lake fishing. It moves a lot like a zoom trick worm in the water. If your fishing areas where you need the fly to be weedless you can add monofilament weed guards on the hooks. I tie them up both [...]

Quick Fishing Report

Kent Klewein | January 22, 2010 Read This Post...

I’ve floated the Toccoa River three times over the past seven days and fished one day out at NCF.  Two of the floats produced some pretty good numbers for January. Yesterday’s float however, the trout got lock jaw once the front moved in and the rain came in around 12:30pm.  The days I was on [...]

Looks like I was right about the weather turning for the good.  Louis Cahill and Bruce Chard are landing some really nice bonefish now.  I have to say, no one can say Louis Cahill can only shoot freshwater.

Andros South Bonefish Lodge

Right now my good friends Louis Cahill and Capt. Bruce Chard are tearing up the flats for big bonefish and other species at Andros South Lodge.  This week Bruce Chard is running his Bahamas Bonefish School and I’m jealous I’m not down there.  The weather card dealt to them was pretty crappy and they’ve had [...]

Only Reel Job Fishing guide, Eric Welch would choose to drop his boat in the lake after pulling into the parking lot and seeing this.  If I would have tried this with my boat I probably would have found my truck and boat jack-knifed off the ramp in the lake.
Locked up three days in the [...]

Reel Job Fishing guide, Eric Welch has been hitting the lake hard lately despite the frigid cold weather. Why is that, you may be asking yourself?  It’s because he’s regularly catching big smallmouth bass, and he also has the lake to himself.
The other day when I met him at the lake boat ramp it was [...]

It was late on New Years Eve and I still had not heard from Brad Wayne.  We had plans for a New Years Day float on the Toccoa River.  The river had been running full blast for weeks now, and we were itching to take some trout on top with our freshly tied up Blue [...]

Looking for a way to keep your flies lasting longer on the water.  Look no further.  Next time you head into a Walmart, Craft Store, or Hardware Store pick up a bottle of Loctite Super Glue.  Make sure it has the brush-on applier.

It’s awesome for finishing flies that are tiny and hard to whip finish [...]
