I've fought one salmon in closed quarters in the creek kemper is talking about. The fight lasted about 10 seconds on 10 lb test before I knew that I was out of my league!! LoL. I'll stick to catching them at the mouths.

Sweet bass! Great pics and nice fish for sure. When I got up at 530 this morning it was 14C according to the radio. When I got to the office at 715, they said the temps went down to 12C, so it wasn't your imagination...it did get colder!

A great mixed bag of fish there! Enough to keep everyone in the family interested....doesn't get much better than that. Sturgeon is my favourite lake now as well...even thinking of renting a slip there for my boat next season. Great report with great pics...thanks for taking the time to put this together!

I hear you Jason! I'll call you to set something up! Interesting Rich....never heard of that before! Yeah...it was a great fight! Not sure if we have the bug yet, but they sure are fun to catch! Jen...we were saying even before the muskies that it was just a great day...lots of laughs, no agenda for the day....just having fun and relaxing. The muskies were just a bonus to an already perfect day. Follow us?? LOL. One great day on the water....probably just a fluke...

Wow....great pics and awsome journey out west! Had to have killed you though...seeing all those lakes in Northern Ontario and that trout though....I know it would have done me in...LOL. Hope you're getting settled nicely...looking forward to your first western report!

WOW!!!! Those Bass are HUGE!!! Congrats to you and your son on those personal bests.....wow....

Great report....gotta love it when a fish hits an unbaited hook!! LOL. As far as I'm concerned an 18" bass is a great size!!! Congrats on a great time....hopefully next time we'll have a pic or two to gawk at!!

Great stuff!! I hate the Bog.....whenever I'm out there, I say "There's no fish in here"....LOL. Seeing reports like this makes me want to give it another try.....almost....

Always enjoy your reports Rich....informative and fun....the way it should be. Congrats to Sugarpacket on her pb too....hehe.

Congrats to your son on the monster fish! Great report and pics....good to see your mom enjoying the scenery too.

Great stuff Steve and Kelli! It's always fun to not have a schedule....just get up whenever and have a nice relaxing day fishing.

Awesome report! Your little guy looks right at home there with all those fish. Looked like a great time, meeting great people and catching some beauty fish too.

Fantastic report Jason!! Congrats on the PBs as well...those are some monster Walleye! It's great to see the two of you having a good time like that one the water....maybe she'll fish with you more now??? hehe. Cant wait for the follow up reports.....

Congrats to the two of you! As much as I like fish pics, I have to say seeing the two of you together with the smiles is what it's all about. You sure clean up nice Jason....LOL. We'll have to chase some fish together soon....you can tell me more about your adventure then! So....are you planning on little basskicker jr's soon??? hehe.

Hey Cliff....I'm a quick study...and would work hard. Could you match my current salary? If so, then I'm your guy!!! You wouldn't have to change your sign either....people could still drop by and ask for Cliff.....LOL. Mo...sorry to hear about the motor problems...I can relate!

Awesome looking fish! Great to see a change in tactics pay off like that for you. Sometimes fishing does feel like your dragging your balls all around the place.....LOL

I had to chase down a muskie for Bly on Saturday as it stripped all kinds of line from her reel. Ended backtrolling once it took a run at us as well....LOL

Great report! Congrats on the PB Muskie in your yak....a great fish no matter how you catch it! Looks like you all had a great time. Gotta love it when the fish cooperates when you have your little one in the boat as well...her smile says it all.

Wow!!! I've been waiting for this report Dan....and it certainly did not disappoint! An amazing report and pictures. Those trout are magnificent fish....something I'd love to fish for one day. I'd love to fish with any of you three....I think the stories alone would be a lot of fun to hear. Yes...the magic of OFC...I've met lots of great people because of this board.

I use 30 pound braid mainline and 20 pound braid for leaders. Where I fish, zebra mussels are everywhere...and it's a rocky shoreline.

Ok...where's the nudity warning?? Jeez....wasn't prepared for that....LOL. Great report Mike...great to see lots of fish caught there!

Awesome part one Mike! It's great to see the whole family getting into the outdoors like that. Your son is quite the hardcore fisherman!! Great stuff....off to read part two now.

LOL....Funny you mention that Glen...we didn't weigh any of them. We did the length just to see if any qualified for OFAH.

Thanks for the correction....largie it is. Thought because of the horizontal line (or lack of one) that it was a smallie. And, thanks all for your comments....was an amazing day out there!

Wow...what an amazing looking family you got there! Congrats! Sweet ride as well....great gift from a great guy. Oh yeah...the fish were great too, but pale in comparison to those family/wedding shots.
