I'm thinking his boys were "fishing" for a laugh. Yeah.. .. that must have been it. [

Now for a real question about fishing....
The last fish I caught was a 24 lb King Salmon. Hooked it right in the mouth on a homemade glow spinner/egg combo. It was an ausome fight with a couple of acrobat jumps and everything. Took about 15 minutes to get it into the net. I found the hook completely crushed and only holding by a thread on it's lip, another 5 seconds and I would have lost it for sure.
Ever since then, I havn't really had the urge to go fishing. Kind of like hitting a hole in one on the 18th hole the last day of the season. You just put up your clubs for the year because you figure no way your going to top that. Catching that big King was like putting a cherry on top of a great year of fishing.
Anyway... on with the question. I know for a fact that there are walleye and Stealhead in the river right now. Do I go out fishing in the cold and risk catching a stupid little rock bass or worse yet getting skunked to close out the year or do I just sit back and
knowing the last fish of 2007 was a monster ?????
..... thoughts?
