2004......what a year.....

Post by RJ »

Everyone's been doing these year in reviews...I love reading them and checking out all the pics....even if I've seen them before... :lol:

2004 was my first full season with my own boat....and a memorable one for sure!

When I joined the board I quickly became known as a Muskie Redneck....but I've found myself becoming more of a multi species guy....and enjoying it!

On to 2005!

Sorry Dial Up users!... :shock:

First trip of the year...took Bacon out for some cats on the Ottawa...

Image

Gordo (my main fishin partner) and I hit a honey hole of Spring walleyes....will they be around this year?..Hope so!
Image

One night on the Ottawa we ran into a bunch of these fellas... :D
Image

So I decided to take MuskiMagnet out to target them....and....
Image

My stepson Nick put a few nice ones in the boat this year too....nice smallie and his first muskie ever.....he still talks about it.... :lol:
Image
Image

I spent a few days in the Kawarthas...

Image
Image
Image

Spent some weekends up on Otter Lake....Nice Smallies up there!
Image

Was fortunate enough to get out with Ed from Paddletales...
Image

Got out with Big-O for a salmon day!

Image


Had a fair year on the Muskie Hunt....Final count was 16

Image

Image
Image
Image

This one received a few votes for Picture of the Year....Yer Welcome Gordo!
Image

Hit Charleston for some lakers!
Image

My better half even came out a few times.... :lol:
Image

My famous 60 incher!... :lol: :lol: :lol: Boy did I take some heat for that one!

Image

Gordo got into a giant walleye....

Image

Bassin for Bucks!

Image


We hit Quinte!

Image
Image



Image


And finally the Niagara Bar Trip!

Here's one of my favorite pics of the year....myself and my stepdaughter Ariel spending an hour under the Sturgeon lake Sunset...

Wolfe,

I spent alot of time fishing for other species that stole alot of time away from my late season muskie fishing... :? but I had a blast at Quinte and the Niagara bar....so it was worth it!

RJ - you're being awful modest as I think that beauty could be pushing 6 feet; not much girth though :twisted: :wink:

Seriously though- Great pics
