wow. Nice pics and fish and scenery. Looks like a great trip.

oos

I would go with that method. Looks solid.

That is odd. I too subscribed to the Walleye In-Sider mag and I too got the little white notice in the mail. What is odd is that I will be receiving the In-Fisherman magazine until my sub runs out. Is that what you were offered?

nice Way to go. Got to get out again

Nice Work Rob and Bro. You guys did good!

LOL! No Rob, it wasn't but that pic does deserve a prize.

Your bird looks like an adult. I am going to say Golden Eagle but I not an ornithologist either.

Boat is the next win. Don't think the Extreme boys will give me one of theirs. Lol! I need to win a boat in that salmon hunt. When I get the rod I will post a pic. I am still stoked. Woohoo!

A couple months back I posted a few pics on the Extreme Angler website. Today it was announced that I won a St. Croix Mojo rod!!! I am so stoked. Thanks to the guys at Extreme, Karl and Mark. Keep up the good work . Thanks again. Can't wait to use my new rod.

Whew. Glad to see that go i bet. If it makes you feel any better I have had about 50 stitches on my face. Cuts heal and chicks dig scars (well that is what I keep telling myself).

Got it. Warrant officer is respectable indeed.

Bass lake is nice. A real neat lake as there pretty much only bass in it. Quite shallow but not really affected by wind. Drive another 30 minutes (but up the 400) and you can be at six mile lake pp. Another really good option and I would say better fishing than Bass lake. Just another option for you.

I know you love the military but can you explain what you mean by "I did really well in the military and most things in life."

Wow. Our bus terminal is full of nice, normal people. You could not pay enough to work there. Nice fish by the way

FILA actually made a collection of shirts with "goo" on the front. It is called the plumber's pattern and all the east end cockney geezers are wearing them in London England. I want you to Bust that myth. lol. nice pike

Are you kidding Stoty? Pit outplayed Detroit throughout the game save for a bit at the end. Osgood was the reason they were still in it. Maybe you didn't watcfh the first 8/9ths of the game.

I hate you guys! not really I am just jealous.

Yeah I know that one. A bit far down and the ramp is not too good at all. I will go there if all else fails. Thanks

Yeah I knw where you are talking about but I have a 2wd truck. I don't know if there is anywhere to park a trailer either.

Right column, second from the bottom. That is all I am going to say.

That is funny Randy. Well, the truth is I was in a bad bad boating accident early last summer but I won't mention that one again. This other story took place in the Middle East (Abu Dhabi). I owned an 18ft fiberglass crestliner with a 140 hp Evinrude. It was a good boat. In order to get to the back side of a protected island I had to cross into an open gap for about a half mile or so. I never really had an issue doing this as the waves were always huge rollers and their frequency was so spaced out that you could actually easily ride the trough sideways almost the whole way and maybe have to ride only 2 big rollers head on (which you did very slowly - up up up the one side and then down down down the other). To make a long story short we had an airlock in the fuel line when the boat went up a big roller and it stalled. We stopped about 30 yards from a huge rif raf breakwall that was about 10 ft tall. We were surfing these big rollers toward the wall so my friend and I decided to jump off and try to keep a 2500 pound boat being pushed by 8ft rollers off the rocks. Wow! Not a chance. After almost being crushed by the boat slamming down on us (it just missed us) we got out of the water and onto the breakwall. My 4 other friends in the boat were being slammed onto the breakwall and repeatedly. I could only stand on top of the wall and watch my boat lifted onto the rocks and slide down about 20 times. I managed to flag down a couple big coast guard boats on the inside of the breakwall and they came to help. In the meantime my buddy in the boat managed to get it started but a huge wave came over the back of the boat as he was trying to reverse out and it stalled the engine again. The coast guard got close enough to throw them a line and managed to pull them away from the wall but the two coast guard boats managed to collide with each other in these huge waves. I walked to the inside of the breakwall where my boat was towed and the coast guard took me to it. I got in and managed to start it. There was alot of water inside and with 6 people on board I could hardly get it to plane. I manged to get it on the trailer and to my surprise ther holw at the bottm of the keel was the only damage and it was only about 5 inches long and about an inch wide. Amazing considering the beating it took against the rocks for about 5 minutes straight. There were 2 guys and 2 girls inside the boat when this was happening and one of the girls was nervous about boats to begin with. This accident could have been a lot worse.

I throw wake baits a fair bit and I really like them. Pike really like the bigger versions of those wakebaits so be careful with them if there are any snot rockets in you river. Some good lures there. If I was going to buy one lure for you it would be a big o brown crayfish colour (I am not buying you one, but if I was that is what I would get you).

jig and pig gets more big bass than anything else. Try throwing a beaver bait as well.

Heavy line applications - Baitcaster Pitching/flipping - Baitcaster Pulling power - Baitcaster 1/2 oz + lures - Baitcaster Trolling - Baitcaster Speed from time bait is out of the water until it is back in again on a cast - Baitcaster (watch KVD fish!!!) I also belive that a good baitcaster has a smoother drag than a spinning reel. Light line applications (10 pound and under) - spinning finesse fishing, drop shot, shakey head, wacky 4" senko - spinning dragging tubes - spinning throwing into the wind - spinning throwing light lures - spinning
