….. Are you reluctant to use crankbaits, stickbaits or any other type of lure that has treble hooks on them for fear of losing them?  Well, I’ve got a little trick that may help you get over that fear!  It’s inexpensive and works quite well.  Give it a try………I think you’ll like it!

…..Have you ever hit something real hard that was submerged in the river with your kayak and feared you might have gouged or cracked it?  Well this has happened to me more times than I remember!!  So I could keep kayak fishing, I had to learn to repair my kayak myself.  This video will hopefully share what I have learned and help you somewhere down the road to do the same. It could also save you some $$$.

On September 4th I was lucky enough to be back in Peru helping install a water treatment system in a small village in the Amazon Jungle.  I am fortunate enough to be in Peru 4 times a year working on community development projects and on this trip I was able to get away on three separate days to do some fishing.

This is the same area BasserDrew, TyGa 10, Sumter Shoalie Fan and I were back in June but at an oxbow lake that was close to the lodge (Palo Verde Lodge, operated by Amazon Expeditions) where I stayed.

I don’t make videos as well as BasserDrew, but here is my first stab at a video – the first of what I hope to be many.  Enjoy!

Here are three river bassin TV episodes submitted by Robert Moore. They all have some great river bassin action! Way to go Robert!

About this video: First of all, what is a dink?  Well after looking up the term it seems the actual definition doesn’t describe anything to do with fishing.  There was a slang definition which I thought would be funny if used to describe a fish – “A fully grown person who looks like they are still dressed by their mother.” It seems the sport fishing community has adopted this term to describe a small fish which holds no excitable value in a story or recap of a fishing trip.  For example, “I went fishing, but only caught dinks” or “Yea, I caught some fish, but they were all dinks.”
Now that we know what a dink truly is lets move on to a more important lesson, how to catch one or better yet how not to catch one.  No one knows why it happens or how it happens, but sometimes when we fish we only seem to catch dinks.  I have put together a video showing my own personal experience catching dinks.

If I offended any dinks in this article, please know that I still think you are better than a skunk!

This fish is the highlight of my year so far.  It was a 6lb 12oz Shoal Bass that my friend ShoalieSeeker got on video for me. I started on the bank and she towed me all the way in the middle of the river as you can see. What a fight! Continue Reading
