I will repeat, that fish was taken on public water. Last I heard, there isnt a private stretch on the Chippewa River. Wisconsin rivers are public property.

Mrs. Ponds cum
Hey I actually have a real job that pays well so I cant be on this thing 24/7. Are you a out of work guide? So listen up im not here to toot your horn or blow you. Im just stating the facts son. AA is a bonehead, and needs to chill with the whole "Musky Sniper " gig. Ive spent my time on the chip and had many a night dirtbagging with your mother in Northen Wisco. Fuck the record , Fuck AA infact Fuck you too. There are real anglers who put in their dues up there and caught some great fish with size and we dont have to write letters to the Drake or pump up our dong on the message boards to feel good about ourselves. I say you take what little money the government has given your bohemian ass and go on a trip catch some fish and get down to what this sport is about. Catch some fish and post some grip n grins so you and AA could have a love child and talk about whos dong is bigger.
Im out.

Is pond scum Brad B aka "AA"? Hmmmm no one will defend Brad, he is a true dildo. He must have been beat up in grade school a ton to need this much attention.

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterGaryS

Ya, he is pretty much a douche bag. I have a police buddy up there say's he has been know the slash trailer tires of other guides, because he thinks he owns the joint. He has pissed off everyone in the Hayward area and really has no friends outside of the Drake. His stories are nothing but lies lived by others....

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJake Pine Savage

Nice Stuff...

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterSRV

Yeah, I heard that throws suckers off the back of the boat. In fact, I heard that the record was actually caught on live bait.

Wendy and Larry rule. Brad Bohen drools.

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterTimbo

Check this shit out. Just went to the link on AA and he has this written on the latest post. Unbelievable. I only wish I new this guy. I am sure he could make me a better person. hehehehehe

"Trust me in this. If you follow along. listen and pay attention I will help you become a better angler and a more balanced person. Big words I know. But anglers are persons of action.

Talk is cheap. Actions speak louder than words.

I digress. Get used to it. I do that often."

YOU HAVE TO BE FUCKING JOKING! Fall off your pony tribesman-you are lame!!!!!

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterBrian O

AA - Stay in Cali, Wisco doesn't want you back. You wore out your welcome.

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterCarl Carlson

Yup, the interweb has seen the truth he is a jackass. And my question is who names himself? Nicknames are given by others. I give him the nickname asshole anglers. Yup AA= Asshole Angler.

February 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJack Pine Savage

Hey you have to check out his AA Scholarship fund. Bradbohen.com..what a butt pirate.!!!!

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterSRV

Good Idea. but he is fucking moron. some Fat wisco kid is doing him

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterSRV

SRV- You have read the goods and really know what it is. This year at the Great Waters Fly Show, he was not invited to speak because of all the shit he pulls bad mouthing everyone on the Drake. He was crying like a little baby and went stomping out to Cali. The show in Chitown was really good this year infact no one missed his shitty presentation. Now is out there in Cali snowballing and T-bagging the locals out there.

After researching this gentleman's ability to be and "expert" in every place he goes, I look forward to seeing photos of the Afton Angler as a Delta Largemouth expert! He is in CA now correct? I am sure it is only a matter of time before this happens. I usually takes only a season apparently to become "expert" on what he would call "home waters" And what the fuck is up with the nicknames? Who the hell is "pond monster", "big pike mike", "Afton Angler", "lucky" , "tribesman" that is just dumb. Did they nickname themselves? My friends give me nicknames but nothing usually complimentary.

If you and your "tribesman" were on survivor, Jeff Prost, the host would put your gay ass torch out.

*The tribe has spoken

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMarky Mark

Marky Mark, you are right in his eye it only takes a season to become an expert in musky fishing but he has been working his whole life to be a douche bag. It seems by the drake issue of him and his looser buddies that they are a group of misfits and consume large amount of meth or sniff paint. His flies are knock offs and he claims them to be his design. I think I have wasted enough of my time on this douche bags glory whole and will retire. BEWARE OF THIS ASSHAT CALI ANGLERS HE WILL WHORE YOUR WATER NEXT.

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJack Pine Savage

I don't get it, this idiot is not even from Hayward, yet it's his 'home' water. BS! The moron caught his first muskie 4 years ago. AS far as Pond Monster, he is not part of the 'tribe'. He actually knows how to fish muskies. PM is a stand up guy and is a musky fishing machine. There are actually some of us up here in Wisco. that fly fish for muskies because we enjoy it & don't give a crap about all the self promotion bs. AA once claimed to have caught 300 muskies in one season. Really? Do the math. it makes no sense. If he spent half the time fishing as he did on the internet, he might actually know what he is talking about.

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered Commentercarl carlson

Wow biz must be booming for the dickwad. They only have one drift boat. What a big operation he has..
Musky Country Outfitters is offering a tremendous value to juice up our bookings in this our Inaugural Season

We offer World Class warm water fly fishing float trips on some of the best musky/smallmouth/northern pike/walleye water on the planet. September is the start of our favorite season - think prime time...

For the month of September we are running a 2 for the price of 1 guided trip sale.

That’s right - book one full day float trip and get a second day free!

That's two full days on the water with the best predator hunters out there for $375 (one or two anglers).

"If he spent half the time fishing as he did on the internet, he might actually know what he is talking about."

Coming from the internet bashing guy.

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterIamBetterThanEveryone

So I what I read on his blog is he conservation minded person and believes on respecting the world around us,but then gets dinged my the Minnesota DNR for hunting without a permit? This is just golden. Come on dude go work at Taco Bell then you can afford the cost of hunting or did your welfare check go to buying some more meth so you can live your mystic minded life.

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterHighCountry Angler

Hey Asshole Angler, with all this thrash talk I would really think you would man up and grown some balls and chime in. I guess hiding behind your drake or your worthless blog you are nothing more than a douche bag with a a big mouth. Come on boy lets hear it, at least show us your a man of your words. I mean come on.

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJack Pine Savage

Wow I dont think he will show up. I seen him last year at the Great Waters show in Chitown and he was dressed like a asshole...... Wow Jake you the man....

February 18, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterSRV
