Just put up some lures on ebay. Have a look here. If you want other colours, etc. drop me line - i won`t give a shit!

So you think ice-fishing is kinda the real and coolest winter fishing thing, eh.?. Well, that`s what i thought, too. At least until today! And maybe it`s still true when you live in some remote areas in Finland. Ice fishing right here in the middle of the town really sucks!

Why?

First of all there are no fish! This is where continous readers might ask if i don`t get used to this with time. Of course i do - i run a fishing blog with a category “no fish at all” smart ass!

Much more annoying then the absence of fish are all those pedestrian with their shitload of funny questions … uhm, i still don`t get their kind of humor. “Are you fishing?” “No ma`m we come from planet Mickey Mouse and search for oil. Can you help us?”

Get a life folks!

Just in case you`re wondering why Japan consumes this whole lot a fish … they need it to drink milk out of girl`s asses.

Don`t believe me?!?

Well, then you should have a look at “The Vice Guide To Sex” on vbs.tv. “Genki & The Art Of Eel Porn” says it all. Kinda weird folks …

Have a look at part one here.

Howdy folks

last post for this year but this is a serious one. Instead of spending your hard earned money on senseless fireworks how about doing a donation for something useful instead, eh.?. Cpt. Paul Watson`s Seashepherd organisation is fighting the rape of our oceans with serious action and need your support! So please visit their website and donate today.

For all the German speaking lads out there there quite an interesting documentation on seashepherd on youtube - watch part 1 here:

Just came along this pretty old stuff … 2 guys spearfishing for Bluefin Tuna off the coast of New Zealand. Pretty weird stuff.

Urban Trouting - Guerrila Style Dude!

As there`s no time for fishing right now another little post on music …

Old but good …

Lovely british sense of humor!

Ok, so we had a plan today … to get out of bed ways too early, jump in the boat, throw some pike flies and nail down some of these greedy green bastards … BUT it seemed that the allmighty pikemaster listened to Slayer instead of hearing ours prayers. To cut a rather boring story short - the water was fucking clear, the sun was shining, we had a brilliant day but only caught baby pikes. So we switched to perch and had some nice 30s on Comic Craws. I say “Fuck that goddam pikes!”

Bless.

Every serious fisherman out there knows it: There are better things in life than going to work. Name it … fishing e.g. or listening to Slayer. The die hards might even do both … together …

Another day of big city combat trouting. While stupid me was trying to catch trees, birds and bugs on spinners Jens performed better and got some decent big city trouts. The biggest one just got away just like the last time. Will post some more combat fishing footage soon. So stay tuned for the real deal - urban trouting - guerilla style.

We just came home from a gig of the German rock`n roll band Schmerzfrei and have to admit that these blokes play some serious straigt in your face sound. Check out their official myspace-site: Schmerzfrei Essen. Sorry guys- lyrics are all in German!

This issue  is a not so new one but still up to date. As Shell want`s to set up a giant mine in Alaska`s Bristol Bay region one of the world`s best Salmon fisheries are in serious danger.

So please make a donation or sign up a petition today. There are quite a lot of websites out there dealing with this issue - you might have a look here or here e.g.

I you`re not into this donation thing you might also buy one of Abel`s limited edition reels. It has never been easier to save the world dude!

Watch Gordon “Fucking” Ramsey go speer hunting for seabass in Britain, hunting giant crabs in Norway or go eelfishing on the river Thames in London. Great stuff of the british chef on youtube. Click below to see the videos.

Right folks, today we here at the Tarakito headoffice are proud to announce that we got a brand new member in our team of professional fishermen and nerds. The mighty Bumble Bee joined the crew by the beginning of this year and since then has proven his skills in various US tournaments where he outfished American pros with ease using our secret underground lure techniques.

Right now Bumble Bee is on the way to Japan in the Tarakito Jet where he`ll meet up with several Japanese pros to teach them what he calls “The Real Style”.

So stay tuned for some serious “Bumble Bee in Japan” dude!
