I really like to fish, but stink at making time for it. I own a house that is about 100 feet from the shore of Lake Michigan, but I haven’t figured out how to fish it. I’ve tried a little with spawn sacks, but no luck. I just don’t know how to fish from shore. I have a kayak, but haven’t really tried from it besides dragging a lure around a few times. Here’s the view from my porch:
My friends and I like to backpack in the Cloud Peak Wilderness Area of WY every few years. We catch insane amounts of trout on those trips, mostly goldens. I caught this fish (not a golden) using a twig and some spare line because I’d already put away my rod for the day.
I have been fortunate that my family owns 300 acres of private water and the fishing is good. I have grown up fishing. It is my peaceful past time. I got the itch for spring bass fishing already. Got a long way to go .
