Thanks for sharing it all with us - I just can't wait to see the pics of the one that you decide to keep

D-Mo - have you seen any Gar yet? I would have thought that it was still a little too cold for them to be poking around.

Something_Fishy - Welcome aboard!! I'm an Maritimer as well (PEI) but I live in Kanata now. I'm up for a fish anytime that you feel the need for some company - just shout out! Markus - How many times do I have to tell ya that ALPINE is THE beer from back home :lol: Although being my Derby Captain an...

Awesome fish!!

Too bad that we are a week and a half from the Derby beginning

The heck with all that small stuff Wolfe!! Put on a pot of coffee instead (Double, Double for me please)

Hey Wolfe!! I'm doing OK thanks. How about yourself?? RL kinda jumped up and bit me on the butt but I think that I've got everything undercontrol now........I'm looking forward to catching up on everything that I've missed around here over the last few months when I've been busy earning my salary :w...

Good idea Markus, but she's a fair weather fisherwoman - no jackets required......
