A Dark, Cold Night (an argument in favor of catch & release) By Bob Chochola ESOXHUNT Magazine - April 2012
Suddenly, I felt a chill and caught a glimpse of cold steel. A flash, then it penetrated - the burn of a razor-sharp instrument tearing through skin, flesh, and bone.
I was hurt - bleeding.(more...)

Sticker Shocked! (surviving the price wars)
By Bob Chochola ESOXHUNT Magazine - April 2012
A week or two ago, while planning a June trip to Canada, I decided to surf the web site of a large popular outdoor retail chain store, to price and therefore possibly purchase a new muskie rig for the adventure. I was shocked by what I found online.

White Sox... Red Sox... ESOX! (spring is coming)
By Bob Chochola
Esox Hunt Magazine - March 2012
Every spring a young man's fancy turns to... ESOX.
Bet you thought I was going to say something else, right? Well, L-O-V-E and/or baseball may be what some guys are thinkin' about, but I'm the kind of guy who would send a dozen long stem red roses to Joe Bucher if I were to catch a 50-incher during one of his moon phases. So, don't go by what I say.
It's all about the monsters of the deep for me. I'm always primed and ready - as soon as the clocks jump ahead and the sun starts to warm things up, I start thinkin' about the hunt.
One spring I even dreamed I was crowned opening day King of muskie season all across Canada. Of course, Kate Beckinsale was my Queen (Hey, it was my dream, okay?), but that's a whole other article. (more...)

A Few Words On Cohabitation: Dinner Is Served!
By Bob Chochola
Esox Hunt Magazine - February 2012
One fine summer day on the Canadian Shield, my fishing partner and I were resting comfortably in our cabin, whist we let the July heat, sunshine, and bluebird sky pass into the late afternoon hours and on into evening. Dog days are long and sometimes hot on The Shield.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door... (more...)

Confessions of a Closet Pike Hunter
By Bob Chochola
Esox Hunt Magazine - January 2012
A few years ago, on the road to the promised land of Esox, destination way north of the Canadian border, kicking-off another typical hype-heavy muskie hunt somewhere in Ontario, a pit stop was made in a little town called Virginia, for gas, food, beverages, and, well, certain other necessities of life.
Don't know about you, but I like to read when I'm - indisposed. So there I was, without a good book, opting to peruse some quips on the walls of this roadside oasis' bathroom, thoughtfully left behind by traveling angler-prophets-past, in order to accommodate said desire. Scribbled in assorted marker colors just high enough and just coherent enough so that they could be enjoyed without straining too much, I found myself indulging in some rest stop prose whilst I took care of business.

When I first opened my eyes Monday morning I knew that it would be a day unlike most. For one thing, it was the day I’d be saying goodbye to a dear friend who died one week before – unexpectedly. (more...)

Tim Tebow: Humble Servant; Media Lynch Mob Target
By Bob Chochola
January 15th, 2012
I saw amazing displays of ego and self this weekend in the NFL coming from every team. All cheered by fans. Players celebrated personal gain through shameless and grotesque displays of human expression. Hardly team play, as far as I’m concerned. Yet all anyone seemed to be able to criticize and find fault with was a player kneeling to pray. (more...)

Margay Schee was burned to death after a distracted driver [talking on a cell phone] rear ended her school bus.
The Faces of Distracted Driving
Margay Schee was 13 when she was burned to death after a truck driver on a cell phone rear ended her school bus. Julie Davis, grandmother of 13, was walking with a friend on an unseasonably warm day when a distracted driver [talking on a cell phone] struck and killed her at 70 miles-per-hour. 16 year-old Ashley Johnson was on her way to work as a tutor when she was killed after swerving head-on into a truck as she was receiving a text message.
God gives us all one life. Don't waste yours, or someone else's, because you think this can't happen to you. It can! And it happens every day.
Read more about this serious issue and view the videos by clicking on the photo of Margay Schee above. I guarantee you'll put away your cell phone when you drive and you'll make sure the people you love do the same...
