Always Protect Your Baby On the River!

When I head to the river alone in the wee hours of the morning I always protect my Baby Glock by wrapping her in a custom made holster from "Hidden Holsters."  Brian is a Marine, co-worker and long time friend of Steelieman.  He can personally custom make you a Kydex/Leather holster too! Contact Brian at hiddenholsters@hotmail.com .  Hand made one at a time in Louisville, OH.   


Now you see her...........and...
Now you don't!

"Hard Water Report"

Ice fishing is in full swing on all lakes and ponds,  remember there is no such thing as safe ice. Noah  wins the big fish of the day contest with a jumbo perch! 


Ice Bones jigging a minnie by the fire! 
  


No fish camp is complete without a great cook.  Buckeye Steve cooks up some deer tenderloin steaks, eggs, and hot coffee while Seth waits in line!


The funny thing is--- I don't think Steve even brings a rod!

Spike Kayak's WMD Steelhead Streamers!

Here is a six pack of Spikes streamers.  One of these, he would't say which one, brought in the only steelhead on the fly for the creekkids this fall.  These are meant to be swung through deep holes to bring up the player steelhead.  When swinging streamers use a shorter leader -7ft, stronger tippet 10lb, and let the current swing the fly down stream and pause at the end before lifting your rod and repeating.  Be patient , keep a tight line, and sooner or later a player male will  smack it hard to protect it's territory.
