Happy Thursday folks! As much as I hate to admit it, today really feels like fall, at least it does up here in the hilltowns where I live. Let’s dive right in!  I spent Tuesday saltwater fishing on a boat off the coast of Niantic CT in search of black sea bass and bluefish. WeContinue reading “Jigs and Bigs Fishing Report: 09/15/22”

Everyone Needs a Cheefu

When I was young I couldn’t pronounce Christopher, so my cousin become Cheefu. To this day, that’s his contact name in my phone.  A few weeks ago I did something I rarely EVER do, I upgraded some gear with a “new to me” bow. I had been shooting the same bow since I was 16Continue reading “Everyone Needs a Cheefu”

Jigs and Bigs Fishing Report: 07/07/22

Summer is in full swing! The water is warm, in the 70s, and the fish are starting to hang out in deeper waters.  Last Saturday a friend and I took out the canoe in some pretty gross, rainy conditions to my favorite local hilltown pond. In just under 4 hours we only landed 3 nibblers,Continue reading “Jigs and Bigs Fishing Report: 07/07/22”
