Just got back from vacation in Fort Myers Beach FL. Had a great time fishing off the beaches although there were no fish to be had. caught a bunch of sail cats, a few sting rays and one small black tip shark. reports I heard said that deep water was hitting hard for grouper, but never had a chance to get out for them. Oh well, maybe next trip!

Leak Repair for Jon Boats
A few years ago, I ran my boat up on what I thought was a sandy beach only to hit a rock and crack the floor of my boat which meant I had to bail the whole way home and almost sank before I got there.
If you’ve ever been in a situation like this with a small fiberglass or aluminum boat with a leak you know how difficult and expensive it can be to repair. I put the jon boat up and it sat for 2 years after that. never thought I’d get it back in the water. Recently I saw an ad on TV for Flex Seal Liquid Rubber Sealant and thought what the hell, I’ll give it a try and ordered 2 cans of Flex Seal.
Flex Seal –
Folks, this is one product I highly recommend that if you are trying to repair a small hole or crack in the floor of your jon boat you get some flex seal. Within 24 hours of spraying this stuff on the 2 inch crack in the floor of my boat was repaired and it was back in the water never to leak again.
As Flex Seal can be applied even to wet surfaces, I now keep a can in my emergency repair kit just in case this ever happens to me again.

Mighty Bite Genetic Response Fishing Lures
Mighty Bite Genetic Response Fishing Lures As Seen On TV
Might Bites’s patent pending Bite Mark creates a wounded, spastic action that provokes vicious strikes. It casts like a bullet, and ‘Swims’ down to the bottom at an angle, due to its Swimming Fins, like a real baitfish.
The Mighty Bite Scent Stick and Rattle Chambers release scent and sound that attracts and triggers strikes from both hungry and neutral fish. When a fish hits Mighty Bite, the Wounded Ribs make Mighty Bite bend and feel like a real baitfish. The Scent Stick then gives the fish a shot of flavor that keeps them holding on, for easy hooksets.
This aggressive reaction is caused by Mighty Bite’s ” DNA Trigger Technology” that overloads a fish’s 5 Senses causing it to track down, stalk and instinctively strike Mighty Bite hard and hold-on. Don’t let this one get away – make this the best fishing season of your life with Mighty Bite.
Each kit contains:
- 10 Mighty Bite Lures
- 12 adjustable Mighty Bite fins
- 12 rattles that “sound the dinner bell”
- 12 unique Mighty Bite scent sticks
- PLUS Weed guards, popper and tail weights, no-miss deadly treble hooks
Over 100 piece fishing system including Mighty Bite genetic response lures in various tested body styles, colors and sizes with included rattles, fins, scent sticks, a popper attachment, red stinger treble hook attachment, off-set hooks, Fishing Secrets EZ Guide, Instructions and custom weights.

Fishing On The Go
Had a great day fishing yesterday.
my son got home from school and wanted to go fishing so I let him call a friend and took them out to a private pond that a friend of mine has. Since I always keep several rods in my truck, I’m always prepared for fishing on the go. We got to the pond and the Bream were fining all over the top of the water!
I was a bit surprised at how active they were since we had just had a big storm the night before and it usually muddies the water pretty bad, but it seemed to clear enough by the time we got out there in the afternoon that the fishing was pretty active. As a matter of fact, in the two hours or so that we were at the pond, I never even had a chance to wet a line myself! When I wasn’t baiting a kids hook ( I had 3 kids with me all under 10) I was taking off fish.
All in all, in the time we spent there they caught about 30 Bream and even a few small Bass on nothing more than worms we picked in the yard before heading out.
Just another great day of Fishing here in North Carolina!
If you always want to be prepared for fishing on the go, check out my picks for the best in collapsible fishing rods.
Eagle Eyes Sunglasses
Eagle Eyes High Performance Eyewear
Every fisherman and outdoor sportsman knows that not having the right eye wear can ruin a great day on the water or in the woods. Cheap sunglasses, or those made more for “fashion” than “function” often only darken your vision, not enhance it.
That’s why I prefer Eagle Eyes Adventure eye wear. Eagle Eyes® patented, polarized TriLenium Gold™ Lens Technology works by blocking out 100% ultraviolet rays and harmful blue and violet light rays; while allowing in vision-enhancing light rays (green, yellow, orange and red) within the 475 nm (nanometers) range in the wavelength light spectrum. This technology allows you to see images more vividly with better contrast and definition.

Instant Fisherman As Seen On TV
Although there are many portable fishing rods (and by portable I mean collapsible) there’s only a few that are really worth anything.
One of my favorites is the Instant Fisherman. this rod is sturdy and although lightweight, it’s strong enough to bring in some decent size fish. I’ve kept an Instant Fisherman in my truck for the past 2 years, and used this rod and reel combo to bring in some 4 and 5 pound Bass with no problem.
The great thing about a rod like this is that it fits easily in your car trunk or glove box and can fit into a suitcase for traveling. I also like the fact that it comes with a no hassle 10 year money back guarantee, not many standard rods offer that.
Check it out and get your Instant Fisherman portable rod and reel combo here.
Bream Fishing
Bream fishing is heating up across the south although so far I haven’t gotten on to any big ones. Most of the bream have been about hand size: 5 inches or so.
Bream can be found all over the country and you may be more familiar with them by other names: Kivers in the North East, Blue Gill or Sun fish in other parts of the country. Although some fisherman consider bream nothing more than a nuisance fish, many anglers fish for Bream specifically as they are an excellent fish for the pan and can put up a good fight on light tackle making for a fun day fishing when nothing else is hitting.
Bream will hit just about anything including live worms, minnows, crickets, flies and will even strike at rubber worms or lures cast for bass or other fish. I’ve been taking the kids out to the local pond and while they fish with live worms I’ve been casting small yellow plastic curly tail grubs on a lead head and other small soft jerk baits for early season bass that have produced some excellent bream strikes. This time of year the bream are starting to nest close to shore. Cast into the bank (or along it) and your sure to find striking bream. If you use live baits, I suggest you use a float above the hook: about 12-14 inches. Bream are very aggressive fish and although have fairly small mouths, often can swallow a hook, so be ready when the first strike comes to set your hook in the jaw quickly. I prefer to use circle hooks as they tend to prevent swallows with most fish.
For all the fishing gear and tackle you need for an excellent day of Bream fishing I suggest you visit Bass Pro Shops. They are currently running a sale of up to 40% off and have the largest catalog of fishing gear, tackle and outdoor sports accessories found anywhere, all at great prices.
Banjo Minnow 110 Piece Fishing Lure Kit
I
‘ve heard mixed reviews about the Banjo Minnow – you know the “life like lure” you see on TV that is supposed to be the best lure to catch any type of fish in any water condition. I finally decided to try it myself and was a bit surprised that the Banjo Minnow actually worked pretty well. Is it the best lure on the market? probably not, but on the days I used it, it did produce more strikes than anything else I cast on those days.
