I'd like to echo much of what was said above, but the post below mirrors my thoughts!

I don't even dream of trout that big!!

Yeah, wouldn't want Miss to become any less attractive!!!

Those fish look real crappie, but the reel much less so.!!

Great fish---far better than I've caught. You say the other guys 'slid' the piece of hook out, but that it was in past the barb. Any special tricks or techniques? thx

Darn! This PAST Sunday!! Wanna go this coming Sun?

Try http://www.bing.com/maps/ and click on aerial in the Birds Eye drop down.

I'm still taking my swim trunks for the last week of June!!

Aw, c'mon---the guys are just joking around ('cept for Harrison. I think he was serious about the eye patch!)

Avoid Balsam if you don't like noise!

Don't know that one---might have to take it for a test drive.

Nice silver colored fish! Re pic 2----you're supposed to disguise background not foreground. pic 3--I think I recognize the background! I avoid the swim-up pool bars. Nobody ever seems to leave to take a leak!!

Killbear is one of the best but may be booked up already---has good swimming, hiking, some massive big hunks of Cdn shield. And can nip over to Dillon, rent a boat, and go fishing.

The white Big O is pretty deadly too.

Big "O"s---bass, pike, pickerel, bows etc.

No need to eat the guts.. Just peel the flesh away from the spine and belly.

I have an important corollary to that rule: Make sure your buddy brings food too! Learned from experience!! My buddy has been known to show up t with just a couple of granola bars in his pocket for an all day trip. I got tired of sharing my food with him so now I very clearly remind him beforehand----I think his wife caters to him a bit too much at home.

But do you think said Sunfire might suffer a trifling amount of damage enroute, perchance??

Leave the booze ashore---fishing is intoxicating all by itself!!

Don't go back looking for the ones you already caught(and kept)!

Had another Homer Simpson moment!! Doh!!

What's this about walnuts? I picked up some walnuts from my neighbors tree last fall. When I dumped the water I washed them in worms popped out of the ground.

Shrinkage!!!

How about this tear jerker?
