My name is Michael and I'm an avid kayak fisherman that calls Chicago my home. Hopefully you enjoy my videos fishing throughout the Chicagoland area, sharing tips & tricks that I've found useful, and frankly anything else that comes to mind that is...

Another amazing morning out on #LakeMichigan. The lake was like glass and I found the Kings! Full detailed report goin up for my Patreon/YouTube Members shortly. https://www.instagram.com/p/CP4BpaeLM0h/?utm_medium=tumblr

I made a DIY fish display rack for my kayak and shared how I did it in a new video up on my YouTube channel. This is going to allow me to take way better pics with my catch after a trip. Check out! Link in bio. https://www.instagram.com/p/CPt1eDwLaBu/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is officially the first “merch” item I’ve had done and it came out great! A clear die cut vinyl sticker with my logo on it. You like? https://www.instagram.com/p/CPtUXUMLz0L/?utm_medium=tumblr

Really can’t believe how many days in a row Lake Michigan has been flat calm in the mornin….today I went deeper than I’ve ever been. Any guesses? https://www.instagram.com/p/CPodsDqr1ME/?utm_medium=tumblr

Good Morning and Happy Memorial Day! Go catch some fish, I know I am 😉 https://www.instagram.com/p/CPiN48rrXp_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Well, I spent the day on Lake Michigan. Couldn’t ask for a better day on the water! Lake was like glass. Posted my detailed fishing report up for Patreon & Youtube Channel Members to check out. Hope it helps get you on the fish! https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTLdPeLXIV/?utm_medium=tumblr

I put my Raymarine Axiom back on my kayak. Love the Element but I just missed the touchscreen operation plus the advanced features it provides. Element will be goin on a new yak that’s coming 🤭 Also pretty cool that I got my logo to come up when powering it on. #raymarine #raymarineaxiom https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTK-xiLubU/?utm_medium=tumblr

A two man Lake Erie Walleye limit from the yak. Me & @willsomerfield smashed em. Great time and memories for sure! https://www.instagram.com/p/CPLhiOorWGN/?utm_medium=tumblr

What you’re looking at is Walleye actively feeding on Lake Erie. It’s so dope when you come across these underwater moments on your fish finder. Caught a Walleye shortly after trolling over it. Had to share it with you. #LakeErie #Walleye #Raymarine https://www.instagram.com/p/CPCHukDLRHr/?utm_medium=tumblr

My final day on Lake Erie consisted of high winds, 4-6’ rollers, and more Walleye! New video is up on my YouTube channel. Link is in bio. #lakeerie #walleyefishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CO--z3XLABU/?igshid=1fdfv2ow06bpw

Gotta love having the whole downtown Chicago lakefront to yourself. Trolling right in front of the Shedd Aquarian. #lakemichigan #lakemichigankayakfishing #sheddaquarium #kayakfishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CNnWBturDhD/?igshid=1p97a8df8bici

Relatively untouched along the Chicago lakefront, these Brown Trout get REALLY fat really fast cause there’s no real fishing pressure on them. Look at this football Brown. #lakemichigan #browntrout #LakeMichiganKayakFishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CNX32-tLy11/?igshid=1tbg261p97nqc

I got a GIANT y’all! New PB Brown Trout on #lakemichigan downtown Chicago. This one is special cause it happened right in my “backyard”. Video is Now Live on my YouTube channel!

Just got my order of @haatfishing jiggin spoons. Looking forward to breaking these in immediately on some Lakers & Browns this week. Take note of the color selection here, I personally feel these are a really good combo of colors that will cover all water clarity conditions on LM. @eric_haataja https://www.instagram.com/p/CNONaaMLMk_/?igshid=5j4mcg2bmcw8

This is what a school and mega-school of Springtime Crappie looks like. You can find them in many back channels in the Chain O Lakes. Look for 4-6’ of water where docks end and I found the bigger fish staged in this area. Good luck and tight lines. #raymarine #raymarineelement @raymarinebyflir https://www.instagram.com/p/CNJJN-ZLOcR/?igshid=tvhjj6tbx8b8
