Frozen hands and a Muskie to boot.

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.

I told my buddy that if the water wasn't so cold I would have jumped in to get the camera because no one will believe it without that picture. So again if someone catches my camera check the pics. There will be a bunch of my son and a few fishing trips on it. 8) You know the pic I think I took while filling my drawers might not be of much because I flinched as soon as I was taking it.... :oops:
FLINCHER!

Good thing your not a mohel and that camera wasn't a schmekel and you wern't at a Bris!

Flincher....!

af!!!! I cannot believe you lost your camera into the drink!!!

I suppose a little balm for your wound is the very nice musky (and attractive birch branch) you landed, but still...!

There must be a Bermuda Triangle of sorts in that area that pulls your belongings into the depths. :wink:

Quite the fish story, for sure.

Thanks, Dad, for taking me fishing when I was a kid.

That's a good story. Too bad the fish doesn't count. We need a picture to make it official. I carry a cheap HP digital camera in the boat as a backup. You never know when you will need it, eh?
