They say, “the Mo should be one of your go to's in the winter months … being a tailwater you have warmer flows than your freestones do.” All of the Montana freestone rivers are filling with ice and slush as we speak. In Maryland, the Chesapeake Bay has striped bass moving down the coast along the Ocean City area beaches. The season’s closing but white perch and near the Susquehanna, yellow perch, are still a good option. Jay’s Bass Bustin’ Guide Service in Florida reports that the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes is excellent right now. A day of fishing might mean 30 bass averaging 6 pounds. Fish are being caught outside the grass line in 4-5 ft of water, and the best bite is in the afternoon. For a free report on waters near you, www.fishhound.com (http://www.fishhound.com). Guest Intro Ivan Orsic (http://yukongoesfishing.blogspot.com/) may be better known to the internet set as Yukon Goes Fishing. His work has popped up everywhere – the Orvis Friday Fly Fishing Film Festival, Fly Fishilicious, Chi Wulff, lots more. At is own blog – Yukon Goes Fishing – his bio reads like this. Brace yourself. “I’m a graduate student studying fluvial geomorphology, applied hydrology, and environmental geochemistry at a fine institution in Missoula, MT. Originally from the Atlantic Coastal Plain of the eastern US, I have always been a fan of all sorts of fishing. However, during a "family" trip up to Alaska when I was in high school, I fell in love with the sport of fly fishing. That’s turned into a pretty sweet set of video blogs and the one that made us finally track him down for the show: Silver & Gold featuring Yukon Cornelius. It’s a perfect Fish Schtick holiday treat.

Two rare minnows are once again swimming in the Arkansas River thanks to pioneering research efforts at the John Mumma Native Aquatic Species Restoration Facility. Plains minnows and suckermouth minnows are on the threatened and endangered lists, but new rearing and stocking efforts have them on a path to recovery.
