ccmtcanada Posted January 3, 2007 Report Posted January 3, 2007 Plane ticket from New Jersey to Toronto: $400 Hiring the Walleye King and Queen for 2 weeks of guiding: $10,000 Finally catching his first Canadian fish: $14,000 Blyght and I took him back out for another prime night of fishing. He finally hooked into his first fish. This monster (and now Canadian personal best) was 9 inches long, 5 inch girth and weighed in at a massive 5 ounces!!! After doing his happy dance, he finally posed for these two pictures. The smile says it all. After a huge fight that lasted about 4 seconds, the trophy fish came out of the water!!! Here's another pic....see how big the thing really was?? Now you know why we had to use the lip gripper on the guy! After spending about $1000 on lures and gear for Canadian fishing, it was all worth it in the end. He now has an awesome story to tell friends and family for years to come. The fish was released to get fatter and bigger for another fisherman to get a new Canadian personal best catch!! What a guy...a true sportsman!!!

ccmtcanada Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Posted January 3, 2007 Is it too late to get my $3000 guiding deposit back? -Brian You didn't read the fine print did you??? "No refunds on deposits...even if we never take you out fishing".
Rich Posted January 4, 2007 Report Posted January 4, 2007 Geeze the vertical hold and a lip gripper too! I hope that whopper bullhead survived! (That is just a joke by the way)

Rizzo Posted January 4, 2007 Report Posted January 4, 2007 I won't debate you for using the lip-gripper on that specimen, I wouldn't touch one of those either. Much like women, fish with whiskers creep me out.
