Fishguy - Editor at Idaho Lake Fishing

Fishguy with a Rainbow he caught from the bank at Lucky Peak with worm and marshmallow and red salmon egg.

Hi, I'm Fishguy. I am a Lake Fisherman.
As a hobby I created this website to further my own knowledge about Lake Fishing and to fill a niche on the World Wide Web.

I am also known as Matt Wall. I live in Boise with my wonderful wife and two kids. I am a home inspector, checking out homes for home buyers. I work during the week so that I can fish during the weekends. I work so that one day I can finally afford that welded jet boat I have been dreaming about.

I do have a 12 foot aluminum boat that I troll with. The boat has two electric trolling motors, and with both running full tilt I can almost create a wake! I use a Bottom Line fish finder that my Dad got me for Christmas, and I have found that the finder has greatly improved my fishing success.

I also love to fish from the bank. With a two pole permit, a chair, and a cooler I am set for the morning. Some people think bank fishing is just pick a spot and throw in your rig. I have found that a little knowledge and thinking can make bank fishing very interesting. It's great to be pulling in nice fish when the guy down the lake is shaking his head.

It is my hope that this site will help other fishermen out there gain some knowledge, and enjoy their sport a little more. The more people that are fishing, the more our leaders will seek to protect our waters and our outdoors lifestyle.

I hope that you fishermen out there in cyberspace that know stuff, will help us fishermen that don't know so much. That is the aim of this website.

After fishing for 30 years I have realized that you can teach an old dog new tricks. The more you know about your fishing water, the more fun you have, because you are catching more and bigger fish. I hope you learn a few tricks by visiting this website.

So...enjoy, and drop Matt (Fishguy) a line. Send an email to Fishguy
