New Concept...

Inspired recently by Kim Bain-Moore, the New Woman BassMaster's Classic contender, I came up with this sort of a marketing idea picture layout for putting these two worlds together finally. :-)

TA-DA!

Cool Women Gear...

There, now what do You think of it? I think that any woman out there who fishes could, should and would, dig this shot and maybe even wanna buy that hot lookin' crank layin' so seductively there, or that power love potion jug, perhaps... ;-)

Go get 'em girls! :-)

p.s. Happy Boxing Day!

Fishing Women...

Yes Women Rock!

I've always known that women make great Fisher-persons. As a matter of record, I've even been married to two of them, so I've had plenty of time to see much first hand proof of that knowledge. ;-) However, this year seems to be even more totally the Year of the Fishing Ladies, from what I've seen lately! I want to take my hat off in here to-day, to two Very Fine Women out there. These great ladies ally excel at what they do. They both LOVE doing what they do and it comes across all over the place!

This then, my fair reader, is my little tribute to these wonderful Role Model Ladies who Love and Live, to Fish...

First off...

There are presently a pile of Fishing shows on T.V. but to the best of my knowledge, there is only One hosted by a Woman. Yes you read that right, a Woman has her own Fishing show on T.V. now! You'll definitely want to "tune in" to This refreshing look at Fishing through a woman's eyes!

This amazing Lady's name is Kathryn Maroun and her fine T.V. show is called, appropriately enough, "What a Catch!"

From the episodes I've watched, she is just Awesome. Such a neat character she portrays in those jungle scenes, cutting her hair and then tying up a killer Fishing fly with it, along with a piece of her foam flip-flop sandal. Spellbinding she is! If You like fishing, or Cool Women, You've gotta tune in to this fox's show. You will NOT be sorry! :-)

Here's a little hyper-link to her website too...What a Catch! Go have a boo for Yourself to-day...

And Now, for 2008, voted as Awesome Femme number 2...

If You've never heard of Kim Bain-Moore before to-day, then I'm really glad to say that you just did, right here on this wee blog and I'm predicting that You will be hearing a lot more about her in the future too. This Australian blooded good looker, won the WBT's Angler of the year title for 2008! That got her not only a brand spanking new Toyota Tundra truck but also, and even more importantly, earned her a berth in the upcoming Fishing World, Main Event, the BassMaster's Classic. That achievement folks, makes this very cool Lady, the very First Woman to EVER get into the Bass Master's Classic!

Yep, Kim will be fishing right alongside the top earning men in the Bassing biz in a few short months. The neat part of that is, that I KNOW that all those boys are going to Love her out there on the tour and will be very Proud of her too. I'll bet ya more than a few of them will end up showing her all their tricks, whenever they get a chance to fish with this sweet thing! Well, until day one of competition that is. ;-)

So I ask You, are You proud of this awesome little Fishing Lady or what? :-) I know I most certainly am. Give her a Google and see where she's been and what she's done so far. This is a real role model here folks, of a smart, tough and versatile, outdoorsy woman, in my books. Thumbs up Kim! You Rule!

She's Classic Bound...

Oh ya, I want it noted right here, right now, that I'm pullin' for her and after reading up on this talented woman, you just may be too...


It's Seasonal Switch time...

Switchin' Gears time...

Well then, that just about does it, now that I've praised these two Fine Outdoorsy Girls to y'all. To wrap it up for to-day, here's a pic to show that it's that time again. Yup, the Big change from soft water to hard water IS here. Brrrrr. I'll be going ice-fishing soon if things go well.

Merry Christmas to All!

Vintage Fishing Lures are Cool...

Heddon - Stands for tackle...

Feast your eyes on this sweet, old, Heddon Wood Vamp, with the slick double jointed body! This beautiful old wooden plug was all the rage in it's day and found it's way into many tackle boxes of the 50's and 60's era's.

Jointed Heddon Vamp

These old fishing lures are about as common as hen's teeth now. :-) Anyone else out there Dig these Cool Vintage Fishing Lures?
