fishing

There are fish stories and there are FISH STORIES. This tale is that second one. It's how a Jefferson City, Missouri man just set a sunfish record and it was all because of a cow. You might want to sit down for this one.

You won't see a fish like this very often. A Missouri man went fishing and caught himself a whopper. The fish at the end of his hook actually dates back to prehistoric times. Spoiler Alert - he threw it back.

If you're a carp in Missouri, you better watch out. The state has a plan to get rid of you and it looks like they're willing to pay to get the job done.

Fishing season is upon us and if you are looking for the best place to fish in the Show-Me State experts say you need to head to rural Hickory County...

I didn't realize that there are a lot of fish you can catch in Missouri that you're advised not to eat or at least limit the amount you intake. There are various reasons why, but I've accumulated a rather large list of finned creatures that may or may not be good for you in the Show Me State.

Have you ever been fishing with a bow? It's quite a different experience from a rod and reel to say the least. One Missouri man used his bow and may have just shot himself not only a state record, but maybe even a world record fish.

You don't hear much about this Missouri place and perhaps that's a good thing. It's an unassuming part of the Show Me State where two Missouri rivers quietly meet and it's special for a number of reasons.

Missouri is known for its vast variety of state parks and now there's a new one. The truth is it's really kind of heavenly and I can prove it with science (and some videos and pics).

It began it's existence as the location of a whiskey distillery back in 1850. Eventually, civilization moved away from this lonely Missouri ghost town, but it's now slowly becoming known as one of the best trout fishing spots in the Show Me State.

Well, I'll admit this is the most unique perspective on ice fishing I've ever seen. It's the viewpoint of the pastime from the fish's perspective as shared by a Midwestern guy.
