With so many pictures I don't even know where to begin.......

As usual.......NICE FISH!

I am bettting that gutless fish did not put up a very good fight.[]

The pic of the cutty and the 5 gallon bucket is classic.....looks like the dam thing won't fit in there!

That Walleye that the kid is holding is HUGE!

Even better is that eye you caught under the ice.....I think I remember TDT tellin me about that one. Great catch.

Thanks for all the fish porn dude!

Let me know when your ready to sell some of your secret bait. [] In just one season you put up more trophy fish then I have caught in my life. Do you attribute it to your bait or presentation?

That one cutthroat looks like Bill Engvall's "dorkfish".

Nice work, looks like a good winter!

With fishing experience comes good luck. You ever fish with some other people and your all in the same spot using the same setup with the same bait but only one person is catching the fish. Or that one person is cathcing the bigger fish while everyone else is catching the dinkies? Its just the way it works out sometimes!

I know what you mean, it took me a long time to get mini jig fishing down. Some days it needs to be almost motionless while others need erratic action. Whatever your doing, your doing it right!

i rather be lucky then good any day but i do have 3 or 4 favorite spots at every lake i fish but as for people in the same spot doin the same thing and not catching the same amount or size of fish i think it comes down to the little differences like a smell on your hands size of the bait the way they put the bait on the hook ive seen that make huge differences or even the way you twitch the bait dragging it in

i think me and my boy's this year got 5 24inchers 3 25 inchers and the one 27 incher and i did put a couple picture of him up there but i didnt take pictures of all the others from the berry didnt get up there as much as i would of liked
deer creek was hard this year for nice fish wallburg was good for planters with a nice one now and then
didnt make rockport all year yuba was a challange but i did get a couple pike utah lake was ok but good year for walleye's scofield just pissed me off big tiger and a broken pole fish lake was fun for a day still dont like starvy but i dont fish for perch

i think the biggest thing is water levels so low this year the fish have moved so much

yep with more experience then comes more luck! The smell on the hands is a theory some buddies and I hypothesized with! Of course as I was catching all the fish and no one else was catching a thing we thought maybe certain smells on the hand was dettering fish away from their bait! So I changed everyones hook, baited em, casted them in the spots I was catching fish and I had one buddie bait my hook then cast me in the spot he was not catching anything. I still ended up catching fish, while no one else did! Our experiment came to the conclusion that with more fishing experience the better luck you will have as I the one in the group with the most fishing experience had the best luck!

i belive that experience is key i hold my line inbetween two fingers and can feel evey bump the bait get on the bottom all the time and find just knowing that a fish has picked up the bait and setting the hook is a big part alot of times they wont move your pole or even twitch your line before they feel your line and spit it out i think alot of fish get missed just because people didnt know they had them on and face it with big fish you get one chance they pick it up and feel your line they well not come back to let you try again
