Dang, There is an App For Opening Beer?

Opena iPhone 4 Case

Well I guess technically it isn’t an app but it is the best smartphone case I have ever seen.  I think the only thing that could make it better is if the case was in a Brook Trout color scheme.  Too bad I don’t have an iPhone! If I did I would definitely get this case.  More on the case if you follow this Link.

Breckenridge Brewery Makes Fun of Main Stream Beer Advertising

Breckenridge Brewery launched 4 different commercials that make fun of mainstream beer advertising, I have put two of them below. I think they are hilarious and help you get back on track to why you drink a certain beer — because you like the taste. Who cares about special bottles and cold activated labels. I really just want to drink a beer that tastes great. For a longer article on the advertisements go to Beer Universe.

Shark Repellent Hooks Will Hopefully Reduce Bycatch

Shark Repellent Hook

Scientists have created a shark repellent hook that will help reduce shark bycatch of commercial fisherman.  The “SMART hook” uses magnetic and galvanic metal repellent to make the sharks less likely to take the bait.  Sharks are have a keen electric sense and the SMART hook has enough magnetism to interfere with the electric sense in the shark’s nose.  A study on the effectiveness of the hooks revealed that on a recreational hook level there was a 66% reduction in baits taken by sharks and on the commercial hook level there was a 94% reduction of baits taken (the larger commercial hooks have more magnetism and shark repellent metals).  For more on the SMART hooks click here.

Ever Wonder What You Should Do With Extra Beer Caps? These Guys Figured it Out!

Labatt Blue BP Spinner

Sierra Nevada BP Spinner

These guys figured out what should be done with all the extra beer caps laying around the house, make spinners with them and catch fish.  The guys over at BP Spinner Shop created a cool looking but effective beer cap spinner.  Below is a picture of proof.  To buy some of these check out BeerCapSpinners.com. Personally I would go with a PBR spinner!

Nice Larry on a BP Spinner

Fly Vs Guy Trailer


This show has some promise, I like the different fishing challenges that they throw down and a little humor never hurts. Maybe they should do a beer drink off to decide who gets to go first.
