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.

Are you sure that walleye didn't eat the 3 perch?

Lovely mounts!
There are few problems in life which can not be solved with a well-placed, high-explosive projectile.

Much like you Phil, I was nothing more than the passenger in ET's boat and the lucky guy to be in the rotation when this big fishee hit.
But, and as RJ and ET will confirm, "Man, am I ever a good fisherman". 8)

Thanks to my delivery service and photographer Mr. O. And thanks to my taxidermy broker Mr. Kehoe.
And a big thanks again to Eye Tracker and RJ for a great day on the water. Every time I see that fish, I'll be reminiscing about the great friends I have made on Fish-Hawk. (and so ends my acceptance speach)
