This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Right Down To The Wire(gonna blow up yer computer real good)

Post by slop »

Fishing for me in two thousand eight has been most memorable. I had the oppertunity to fish new and very remote water as well as the usual backyard ponds.

The hardwater season was well under way in January.

My most enjoyable fish to target are panfish.

Here's why!....mmmmmmmmmmmm

Some tasty Trout from a back lake....I was the only one on it so it's MY lake...stay off of it!!.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Late ice Crappie were on fire and the weather was absolutely outstanding just before the playing field deteriorated.

I had an exceptional Spring Walleye opener, however all the evidence is still in the camera at the bottom of a river :shock: :shock:

My good ole' buddy Ratsotail, clearly enjoying himself.

The trip with Bunk and buddies to the far north is etched in my mind forever....nothing short of stellar!

God bless you Trev.

While you folks were stuck in gridlock traffic and steiffling 40 degrees with the humidex it was just above zer degrees when I took this shot.

Hey Grant,

The best part about looking back on the past year is looking forward to all the new adventures you'll have this year :lol: . I'm happy to see the Perch are cooperating this year and the Crappie are starting to show themselves. Catch one for me!

Tightest Lines Friend!
