I can't seem to load your blog. I'm not sure if the problem is on my end or yours, but I wait for it to load and nothing.
Some general blogging advice though would be to focus on creating the best content you can. Think first of your readers and do what you can to give them what they want.
Keep at it since there will be times when the last thing you want to do is add one more post. Know that everyone else feels that way at times and it's ok. The inspiration will come back if you let it.
Try to make your blog stand out from the rest. I'm not familiar with fishing blogs, but find something that other fishing blogs aren't doing and do it yourself. Make your blog interesting, entertaining, informative, useful, fun to visit. Anything to make people want to visit and come back for more.
Participate on other blogs in the industry by leaving comments and getting to know other bloggers. Build friendly relationships with them. Link to their posts and they'll link back to yours.
Blogs are conversations. When you see another fishing blog with an interesting post carry the conversation over to your blog by writing about the topic from a different angle or from your perspective. Link to the original post and leave a comment on the original post.
Mostly keep at it. Develop your own writing voice and do what you can to make people want to visit. Don't be afraid to experiment either.
