                                                                                                                                                                      If you have some good info on how to catch any of the species not yet added to this site, or have some additional tips for fish already on this site, please e-mail me.  Eventually I would like to see every species of gamefish covered.  Check back frequently as more species will be added as I catch them and more tips and information will be added as I receive it.  If you have a fishing tip or photo or story to share please feel free to e-mail me and I can post it on this site.  I'm trying to compile the best collection of quality fishing photos that I can for everyone to enjoy.  Please see the Photo Gallery for what I have so far and send me your pics!
