Well done Frank, well done!

Welcome aboard. Lots of good folks around here that will help ya spend ur money:lol:

Good job Mike. Looks like a rough day on the water

Yeppers. I just got a word on this today and am gladthey caught this SOB already. What a bone head in front of all those people. I hope they throw the book at him and its granite. Disgrace anyone let him leave without a license plate or a few less teeth. Gonna take a long time to replace a fish like that. Fines should go to raising more sturgeon in my opinion not to the Gov.

I wish they would stop referring to him as a fisherman, errrrrr......

im walking in circles waiting for the fishing to pick up:(

I have not been out in like 3 weeks. Been super busy but glad to get stuff out of the way for when it picks up. If the Fishsniffer ain't gettin em, im not heading out:grin:

Nice catch Dan. Glad to see ya still got it. Thanks for the report.

Sounds like a good day finding them fishy. Glad ya got the parts and not anything crazy expensive.

Looks like a fish fry is in ur future. Nice catch in a beautiful place. GJ:D

At least ya got out fishing. Its been tough all aound and now its hot! but only temp wise:rolleyes:. Welcome to the site:)

Looks like the whole GLF crew could board that;). Nice rig, bet she can handle some fishing weather.

Very nice day. Thats pretty sweet to use all the info and limit out 25 feet down out that far. GJ:king:

Sounds like an exciting day out there. The weather always puts a twist on things:mad:

did you find any tackle boxes?

The pike i got had a different storm thunderstick stuck in its side. Thought that was good enough. Uncle got it in the right ear, he was allowed to keep the spinner after i clipped the hooks as a keep sake:lol:. A little scotch on the ear and he was good to go.

Nice catch, both the 28" walleye and that new board:lol:

Note, carring waders is much less tiresome.

Wear your sneakers, and carry your waders in and out on thsoe long trecks.

Been there done that.

Sounds like you guys had a great weekend.

The walk there wasnt bad, maybe 1/4-1/2 mile. If i had sneakers my waders would still be out there after the getting lost part of it. At least i was smart enough to bring my headlamp. My cousin didnt even have that:rolleyes: Was a great weekend of exploring.

Well its Monday i survived:grin:. We ended up with 10 guys in our 20' X 24' cabin with 3 generations of cousins dad, uncles. Pulled a few pike out of the dam with the biggest being just under 30". Well i did manage to put a treble hook thru my uncles ear:lol: He was a trooper though and i got to do surgery:rolleyes:.

Tried fishing a local stream with my cousin that had fished it there before:crazy: Well after a long walk in waders for 3 miles along river without a spot to even cast, we headed back. After a long day on the boat fishing with alot of beverages, we walked around for almost 3 hours in the dark in the woods in waders!!!! Both forgot GPS, compasss, and phones.

Canoed down Ausable from Alcona to Loud which turned pretty fun with prob 30 trout hooked. All spinners for trout. Some smallies on worms. Got 2 keepers in, lost some darn nice fish. Cousin got a 18" smallie on ultralight:lol:. Headed back late Sunday after lots of driving and cleaning. Im beat!!! but had a fun weekend with the fam.:grin:

Me and Randy FRi

Sat Morn

Heading up to the DAM pond this weekend for a fam fishing trip Gramps cabin is 1/4 mi away. We fished it fairly hard last year and did pretty crappy. Sure it will be fun but always looking for tips as my standard tactics have failed miserably. Gonna float down the Ausable which should be sweet. Will post when i get back hopefully:lol: Thurs to Sunday fishing trip is gonna rough with 12 guys:beerchug:

That sounds like a great day of perchin with a nice king tossed in. Fished til outta bait and switched prey. I love it!

550fow!!!! Thats a long drive. U are dedicated. Wish it woulda turned out better for ya. That musta been cool being right in the middle of the lake. How far out where you? 40 miles?

Thanks for the report ANdy. Good time to get out and relax. SOunded like a great weekend to have the wife and kids out on the boat.

At least ya kept that skunk out of the boat. Way to keep going at em. Always hate taking out newbies and not getting anything. Nice catch in tough conditions

Wow thats a heck pf a weekend. I bet ur arms are sore:) Nice catch

That does stink. No show ridders should be charged for waisting your time. espcially if they dont own a boat, which means they have no Idea how much time you spend in preperation to get ready for an ordinary trip. Its alot of work and even though we enjoy it the amount of time put in is mentionalble.

I was the rider. Hs wife and him came over with his boat last weekend and salmon fished for the weekend. Finally talked to him at noon and i dont think 6am woulda been pretty. At least i didnt miss much salmon action from the looks of things.
