I’m going to miss this year end clearance stuff once 2012 rolls around. For those of you who aren’t keeping track or happen to be a little slower than most, I’m posting lots of stuff that never made it to the page this year. Consider it clearance, the bargin bin, one last try before I [...]
Wow. 2011 is flying by eh? By my count there are three days left until 2012. I’m excited. 2012 is going to hold some great fishing, the likes of which have never been seen (at least on this humble blog). As we travel farther down the rabbit hole of fishing addiction, allow me to present [...]
As we draw 2011 to a close I’m forced to think about all of the things I didn’t get to do this year. Regrets? Perhaps. I’m going to do a few quick and dirty rapid fire posts. Good news is you’ll get some great pictures to look at. Bad news is there won’t be much [...]
Fall is in full swing in Southeastern PA. The leaves are starting to turn, water temperatures are dropping, and lately it seems the bugs are growing in size… but before we get to that, have you ever seen one of these? Looks like a sh… show on wheels to me! If I can’t get a [...]

Well I’m going to cut the suspense and show you the single moment of happiness for my day. Although we caught many Largemouth Bass at Marsh Creek today there was one special fish that (at least for a little while) will hold a special place in my heart. The previous Functioning Fishaholics record Largemouth Bass [...]
All right this is long over due so I’ll be brief. Back on the fifth of March I made a visit to The Philadelphia Fly Fishing Show at the Valley Forge Convention Center in Valley Forge Pennsylvania. While a lot of the old timers there said “Somerset’s bigger”, I was blown away by the amount [...]
The Outdoor Blogger Network’s photo prompt this week is all about the un-mountable anti-trophy (aka biggest disaster of a catch you can find). Here is a little something I caught at the upper part of Green Lane Reservoir. I consider catching this fish punishment for drowning worms. ENJOY! Have you ever caught a “record” [...]
Sorry girls… This is a post about a bug. Today’s fishing was a disaster. While I’m still collecting my thoughts and dealing with the windburn on my face I figured I’d share some pictures of a little friend I made today. I believe he’s a little black stonefly (but I’m barely a fly fisherman and [...]
This little guy is one of the best fishing companions you could ask for. He’s stealthy and keeps to himself but don’t let his small size fool you. Under that calm silver and black pattern lies the Vatican Assassin Warlock of the fishing world. Yes folks, this lure has tiger blood running through its veins. [...]
