  • The Peluso Report: Hot as a Firecracker

    Mike Peluso|Jul 12, 2021

    The fishing right now is just as hot as the temperatures! Some things have changed a little, and some things have stayed the same. Lake Sakakawea is unreal right now! Tons of fish are being caught in that 15 to 18-inch range, and some really nice sized fish are mixed in. I am still seeing fish being caught up shallow, with the right conditions, but overall, I'd say the average depth of most fish getting caught is in 10 to 22 feet. For my boat, it has been bottom bouncers and a plain hook, with...

  • Lining Things Up

    Nick Simonson|Jul 12, 2021

    The first thing I look at when inspecting a young angler's reel is the type of line coming off of the spool. Over the holiday, I had the opportunity to connect with my wife's cousin's kids and introduce them to my style of bass fishing. While we had angled together a number of times in the past, it was never specifically for bass and would allow me the chance to explain the finer points to a 13- and 9-year old who were getting the feel for various niches of fishing. In looking over their reels,...

  • Old and New for Summertime Crappies

    Nick Simonson|Jul 12, 2021

    There are many options when it comes to catching crappies, most involving a small minnow. Whether under a slip float or on a jig, live bait is king when summer slabs are feeding, but on some lakes, baitfish are prohibited, and in many cases, light tackle anglers enjoy the challenge of fishing crappies without it. With today's selection of plastics, however, not having live bait or not being able to use it provides a chance to explore various plastic bodies from classic options to newer models...
