Well, I figured I'll upload a few photos since I'm bored.

Looking forward to seeing other people's photos too. I normally don't post pictures but I like to see what others are up to and thought I would put some up for a change.

Here are a few of my favorites from this year to date; a few of my girls, and the oldest catching her very first fish all on her own- made for a very proud papa. We were able to use our three Pigeon lake tags on her first three "solo" fish, and she was thrilled- even got in there to help me clean them! Our youngest is interested, but mainly comes along for the cute factor

The one of me is my second biggest walleye to date, an 8 lber from Calling lake at 4:15am or so. Great story behind that one, as the trip was the last for a while with a very good buddy; we slept in my van overnight, and hit the lake by 4:00am. This was one of the first ones we tied into that day, and we ended up catching well over 50 fish that day- a ton of fun.

Here's to an even better second half of the year!

Chronomid, is there a way to attach the pics so that they show up in the thread? Much easier than opening each attachment, but mine just added links instead of posting the actual pictures...

Yeah man host them on Photobucket or Facebook and get the URL. It'd be http://www.photobucket.com/jefferson/pic1234.jpg for example.

Now you take that url and code it in [ img ] URL [/ img ] obviously without the spaces.

This is about the only worth-while fishing I have done this year.

Couple of the larger ones from this year.



I had a larger walleye pic but it was caught by my wife. I don't think she'd really like her face on the internet holding a big fish...lol.

Nice eye man. How big did he go? I recognize the spot, I tried my luck there yesterday. Were you one of the other folks down there? We were in the black explorer, only there for a bit over an hour, left when storm hit (I had to work in the morn).

SOME NICE FISH PICS GUYS!!!


Here's a few pics from this summer so far. We didn't catch any Monsters up in Masset on the QCI. So I never took lot of pics.
Were leaving Rupert with 2 boats on the 18th and going down to Naniamo on the Island so hopefully we will be run into some BIG ONES on the trip.
