St. Croix Fishing Rods
I'm very happy to announce that as of 2009, I've joined the pro-staff for St. Croix fishing rods and related products. I've used St. Croix rods for many years and delighted to be part of this terrific company. What could be better than American made fishing rods designed exactly for the kind of fishing I do on a regular basis? Check my Sponsor and Links page for a direct link to the St. Croix site. Of course, my guests this season are invited to use any of my St. Croix rods.

Bucktail Building Video Now Available
The first in what we hope will be a series of instructional videos is now available. The dvd is titled "RFRG Presents Bucktail Building". In this video the "stars" of Regular Fishin' for Regular Guys radio, Pete and Muskie Matt show the procedures for tying and constructing your own bucktails. Bonus features on how to build wire leaders and sucker rigging are also included. The video is available from Rollie & Helen's Musky Shop. 

Spring/Early Summer Smallmouth Plus Guided River Outings
This year I will be offering a special guide trip for those looking to enjoy a unique northwoods experience. We will be wading the river in search of Smallmouth Bass as our primary target. Fish in the 17"-20" range are not uncommon and we've had tangles with smallies up to 24" on these waters. These fish fight and put on a show that you won't believe until you experience it! In addition to bass we frequently encounter pike, walleye, and even muskies are not out of the question. This is usually a three to four hour trip for a maximum of two anglers and special rates apply. Call for more details.

Rollie & Helen's Musky Shop Many of you know that in addition to guiding, I work at the world famous Rollie & Helen's Musky Shop in Minocqua, Wisconsin. I am thrilled to be part of this prestigious organization and look forward to meeting you at the store or the many sport shows we attend each winter. We are always happy to answer questions regarding  gear. If I'm not out on the water chances are you can find me at the shop.
