He has a lot of good information on his blog, but i don’t believe he is uploading new content as he is back to doing military type work. Also, he used to not be sponsored by any of the equipment manufacturers so i felt his reviews and tips were honest and unbiased. Now, he is sponsored by Daiwa so now everything they make is the best… take it for what it is.

I admit that I enjoy watching the videos, but these guys never give any idea where they are actually fishing.


In time you will learn this is a good thing for two reasons. First, if they did say where they were, the spots will get overran immediately and won't be good spots anymore. Second, they actually do give you an idea of where they are and as you start going out you'll be able to guess based on the video.

But the real thing you should be looking at in all of these guys' videos is not location, but conditions.

From Delacroix to Hopedale, there are a million spots to try. What you need to learn is first, how to read spots based on conditions, and then two, how to leave a spot that's not productive.

Pretty helpful guy, but he needs to make up his mind on keeping or releasing fish. One video he white knights for releasing fish, no matter the size, and then the next he brags about limiting out and filling a box of fish. Which is it?

He took a contract job overseas. He left pretty quickly. No idea when he'll be back

I see a lot of posts in different sites about locations such as the wall, the point, the bridge, etc but we have no idea where any of that stuff is.

Warm weather this year has them scattered the next cold front will help a lot to concentrate them in the usual locations. I avoid the spots you mention simply because everyone goes there, and they can be very hit or miss.

Good winter spots with cold water temps are Little Lake / Mud Lake southern shoreline and where it meets the channel to the Rigolets, and Bay Jaune east side near the small platforms and close to Counterfeit Pass. The Blind Rigolets channel behind Rabbit Island has deep holes and also worth a quick stop.

These aren't top secret spots you'll have some company but can be very productive this time of year.

Tight lines.
