I was looking at my recent photo galleries.......

remembering each epic battle........

each Big Fish Lost!

The vivid colors of some of the fish.......

Digital cameras have ALMOST taken the need to keep fish away.....

The trout season for the year is almost over.......

The winter will be hard to tolerate with trout fishing!

already have some new streams targeted to scout!

Gotta love the Driftless Area!

Instead of keeping the fish you could always use the photo to get a replica made, they usually last longer and look better than a skin mount anyway []

I am a firm beleiver that in haveing my fish and eating it too....[cool]

If I plan on killing it, I plan on eating it. but on the up side they now make mounts from your fish that allow you to eat your fish as well....

Other than that I take tons of pictures, check out the fishing tournaments and events board for the 16 species contest....

Welcome aboard Mother Nature. We are always glad to have new members on the boards.

What type of fishing do you do and in what part of the country??

We would be glad to see some fish reports as well when you can.
