I had to walk the dogs as they were going crazy in the house. I decided to take them to the forest for a romp while I could hunt mushrooms. We headed down into Filmore County to get on a piece of state forest. There is a trout stream on this patch of [...]

I have worked the fly fishing conference tour for many years and do not [...]

Shell and I made it out for some trout tonight and ended the evening with some mating mayflies and unhookable Gar. Shell caught a trout on a crawler. I caught a few on streamers. The biggest 18-inches. Shell found some Monarch Butterfly caterpillars on the Milkweed on the banks of the creek. Although I had [...]

It is always a treat to go camping. This time we had the whole Sershen clan together. Shawn was back from Los Angeles, Mom came out, Tiff and her sons were even there. We made our annual pilgrimage to the Lanesboro fish hatchery where Aries got to see wow trout are reared. We fished Duschee [...]

We are all here. Sleeping in several tents in two campsites. The boys went to Mystery Cave. The men went fishing. A wicked thunderstorm rolled through at dusk, Shawn and I still fished. I caught a bluegill in Forestville State Park. It makes me think that I need some Bluegill streamer patterns to get those [...]

Today Stino and I set out to get to the South Fork of the Root River. IN all of my majestic knowledge I typically find it a struggle to end up in Choice as I typically forget that I need to go through Rushford and not through Houston. Today I went through Houston and we [...]

Today Stino called me and talked me into going for some trout. We headed to Stockton. The fish were in their usual haunts and were taking large nymphs that were swam as emergers, caddis dries, pink labs, and flash back PT’s. We took several dozen fish in a few hours without walking more than a [...]

Today we deeped up in two new Wenonoah Norfolk canoes with three paddles combined. We put in just below Minnesota City on Garvin Brook. Our access was not really an access. Mikey, Al, Conor, and I made due. This section of Garvin Brook had been ravished by floods in August of 2007. The bulk of [...]

Today we had ten to hit the river. For some, it was our second day this week on the water in a canoe. Our destination was the Zumbro River between Theilman and the Kruger Recreation Area. I am excited to say that we found a patch of blooming Trillium alongside the road to the launch [...]

Today Mikey and I decided that we could catch more Redhorse in Minnesota City. We also had a plan to hook up with Master Baiter from River Angling to find a decent carp and buffalo spot. I phoned Brad to let him know we would be in our usual haunt. We met up in Minnesota [...]
