We very much appreciate Nancy and Chris, from Salem, NY, for supporting our local business! For their 25th wedding anniversary, they booked a fishing charter with us on Lake Champlain, in South Bay.

Both of them caught catfish to cook up. Nancy hooked into a lunker freshwater drum, which as drum do, put up one heck of a fight! She did outstanding getting it into the boat! They steamed the sheepshead and dipped it in butter and said it tasted just like lobster! Yum!

Nancy also set the hook on a 41″ longnose gar. It was no match for her, as she finessed this toothy dinosaur right into the Clam Fortis net!

Chris caught a couple of bronzebacks and they both hooked into white perch.

It’s always awesome to see couples enjoying the great outdoors together. P.S., the competition was fierce on the boat. We look forward to their next charter with us!

Dad Fifield, Vietnam veteran, was with us in Spirit on Lake Champlain this Memorial Day. Those who knew him, knew he had quite the sense of humor. Alicia caught and released her personal best today, a 38 inch pike, Ryan’s came in the boat right after hers at 37 inches. Close Ry, but no cigar. Wishing you all a happy and blessed Memorial Day! We wouldn’t be able to do what we do, if it wasn’t for the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice. #MonsterPike #LakeChamplain #MemorialDay2020 #AmericanHeroes #GoodBlessAmerica #ClamOutdoorsFortisNets #BassBoat #NYSLicensedGuide #FifieldOutfitters

The turkey hunting in our region of NYS has been good thus far, but we’ve only been able to go ourselves. We had to cancel all our guided Spring turkey hunts as well as fishing trips. Guiding businesses are deemed to be not essential businesses in NYS.

You can see that these ‘ol boys weren’t practicing social distancing, so they had to be removed from the flocks. It was a great start for us and a quick finish for Greg Fifield this year. He was out two days in a row and done. #AllTaggedOut #SpringTurkeySeason2020 #OrganicMeat #Covid19 #NYSGuidingBusinessesAreClosedForNow #FifieldOutfitters

Saturday, we had a bachelor party join us on the ice to give their buddy, Mike, the groom, an ice fishing send off into marriage! This group traveled to Salem, NY, from all over the country, as far as Los Angeles, California, to celebrate with their beloved friend. Flags were flying with perch, bass, and pike coming out of the hard water holes! Although the big boys didn’t come up for a photo opt, it was a fun and exciting time when each flag popped up. You never know what’s lurking below!

Once again, our ice fishing grill menu was a HIT! The grill featured hot venison sausage, maple venison sausage, marinated venison back straps, bear steaks, and hot diggity dogs, not to mention all the snacks and drinks to go along with it.

What an absolute pleasure it was working with Steve, who booked and organized this trip. Thank you, Steve!

We also want to thank our brother, Greg Fifield, who was here at 4 a.m. to help us get everything that this entailed ready to roll for the group’s arrival on the ice. He worked with us into the evening hours! Also, a thank you to little bro, Chris Fifield, for pitching in with a helping hand throughout the day. We couldn’t have done it without you two! We want to congratulate Mike, and his future wife, on their upcoming nuptials! #BachelorParty #IceFishingSendOff #Groom #NYSLicensedGuide #ILoveNY #WashingtonCountyNY #FifieldOutfitters

Sean caught and released this beautiful smallie on one of our tip-ups! The weather was cold and windy, with just a few flags here and there. Despite the slow day and weather conditions, we were thankful to be doing something we love. Looking forward to getting these guys on the bass boat for some open water fishing!

What a great time on the hard water we had with Adrianne and Fausto! It was flag central all day long! The first one of the day resulted in a slobber knocker of a largemouth! The rest of the day consisted of bass and jumbo perch on our tip-ups. The pair also jigged up some bass on the jig sticks. We’re looking forward to having this awesome couple back for many more outdoor adventures!

The IceArmor Ascent Float Parka and Bib by Clam Outdoors made a debut today on me. The padding in the knees of the bib makes it easier on them when setting tip-ups and fighting fish. This outfit has all the luxury options, kept me toasty warm, and has a huge safety component, with its built in Motion Float Technology. #IceArmorAscentFloatParkaAndBib #ClamOutdoors #NYSLicensedGuide #FifieldOutfitters
