The life of a hooked fisherman

Fishing and the outdoors are my life . Growing up even as a very small boy i was always fascinated with the outdoors and especially the water and what lurked beneath . I would always catch myself spending every waking minute by the water especially in the summers at my grandparents lake house .

When i started fishing i would use a worm and a bobber i was the biggest pain because all day i would cast to the bluegill and catch them over and over all day long so someone would have to bait my hook all day,after my grandfather had enough he put a rubber worm on my hook to slow my use of bait but it never slowed my love of fishing and my love grew for artifical lures . When your a child all you have is what you can get someone else to buy for you when we went to the tackle shop i would look at every bait on the shelf and say how many fish i would catch if i had them , every once in a while my mother or my grandfather would buy me one but i wanted them all.

I loved art growing up , i always drew pictures of scenery or animals its what i did when i was away form the lake and water . I’ve continued both passion over the years when i was young we fished for Bass , Bluegill , Crappie , Perch , and Northern pike and the lures we used were normally those standard colors or patterns of the forage fish or insects or frogs. where i live now west of Toledo , Ohio and north of the Maumee river Walleye and Saugeye are my main target fish and the way that i paint is really directed right at them . the bright patterns that cover the majority of my baits have come from years of fishing lake Erie’s western Basin and all up and down the Maumee river . the spring time we chase the walleye with a Carolina rig a bright colored 2” twister tails from pinks and purples to yellow and even dark colors like black and blue . The colors that we use on Erie and the inland reservoirs are no different and i try to paint things that bring those combinations of colors together to make something they cant resist .

i really love painting baits for fishermen and women and the fish , i greatly appreciate all the buisness i receive and the great words when someone uses one of my baits and catches some great fish . Keep your passions alive and enjoy your time on the water with family and friends and continue to pass fishing down .
