Introduction to Fishing
This time we went on boat fishing from Newport Beach with our new employee Miku!! She has absolutely no fishing experience, but starting today I want her to learn the joy of fishing and bring up this Daily Flash Minnow blog site together. She will become our new “Lucky Fishing Girl” and will also begin writing articles about her experiences, so please stay tuned! Today I will be helping her out with the basics including knot tying and casting.
The boat took off to Huntington Beach offshore and we will be aiming for some Rockfish, Sanddab, and Scorpion. Since it was Miku’s first boat fishing experience, she was having a difficult time getting the lure to the bottom and couldn’t get any bites. I completely understand how she feels because just a year ago I was in the same shoes. If only she was able to get to the bottom, the fishes would most likely come for it, but it seemed pretty hard for her to understand the feeling of it hitting the bottom… While then, I got a bite!! I could feel it swimming around so I was guessing it might be a Mackerel. I wanted Miku to feel how the rod felt when a fish is caught so we traded rods and had her retrieve. It was my very first Mackerel! (Miku’s rod on the other hand had a starfish caught on it!)
When it became about time to go back, we hear a yell, “Ah~~~!! Fish!!” Miku caught a large size Scorpion!
Miku you did it!! It was her very first fish! (I’m starting to have this feeling she just might catch big ones… The Mackerel was 17in!)
Please continue to see how Miku develops her fishing skills!!

I had the opportunity to travel to Evansville, Indiana to shoot my 13th and final 2011 episode of Stihl’s Reel in the Outdoors. This time though, I was not chasing bass, but monster blue catfish with Captain Paul Willett of Camo Fish Guide Service.

Labor Day Fun
I had one business trip this week. I did a fly-in, fly-out deal in Phoenix for Berkley Havoc and Spiderwire. Other than that it has been a good week of family, work and exercising.That seminar was great; I did a two hour appearance there and talked about fishing. But, the best part was all of the kids that showed up.

Deer Hunting in Kentucky
Over the past weekend, I hunted in Kentucky with Drop Tine Outfitters It was opening the opening weekend for Kentucky’s archery whitetail season. Kentucky is one of the few states that opens early enough for you to take a buck in velvet.
