Daily Posts

I'm going to try to get back to posting daily so check back every day to see if I have!  Also, I will be starting a new feature called "Tip Tuesday", where I will give out a tip or a link for tips regarding hunting or fishing or anything with the outdoors. 

On a second note, feel free to comment or email me if you have any questions!

Get Ready to Hunt

It's nearly hunting season!  Get ready to take your kids hunting by going to your nearest outdoor shop and stock up on all your hunting needs, from guns, to licenses, to ammunition.  Bass Pro Shops is a good place, but your local gun store would work fine.  I have my own hunters safety license so I can get a hunting license.  I am going to go on my first hunting trip this season and I'm stoked.  Fishing season is coming to its climax too!  August through October is the best time in Baja and Mexico.  Knock em dead!!!

First Overnight

I went on my first overnight trip on the Shogun in late May.  There was a prospect of yellow tail and I had never caught one.  The weather was rough with eight foot seas during the fishing hours.  Early in the morning, I had the first catch of the day, but it was a bird.  The bird swallowed my hook so I had to re-rig.  The captain hooked a fish and handed it off to me.  It took about 10 minuets to bring it in and it was a 25 lbs yellow tail!!!  My first yellow tail!  It was pretty awesome!  I also brought in a ling cod just within legal limits about 2 feet long.  All in all it was a great trip and the crew and captain of the Shogun are awesome.  I recommend going to http://shogunsportfishing.com and booking a trip.  October is the best time to fish so Knock 'em dead!!
