Your summer fishing highlight!!

[Bobby Bass]

Let's hear your summer fishing highlight here. What has happen to make a outing a kodak moment.

[Bobby Bass]

I was out fishing just the other day On one of my favorite little lakes, Of course it is an hour drive from home here and the weather is never the same. When we arrived the winds were clipping along at 20-30 mph with a few gusts thrown in. I was looking for a calm spot, so we pole ed up a narrow, weed and pad choked channel to a small bay. When we got to the mouth of the bay there was a rock that I had never noticed before. The channel is only about 15' wide so I am sure I would have seen it before. I reached over with my push pole and tapped it. It moved away, here it was a snapping turtle the size of an overturned laundry basket, never seen one that big before and I USED to wade that channel...

A friend, his 8 yr. old son, and I spent the day fishing Mille Lacs. The morning started out cool and the little boy was getting warm and wanted to change into shorts. Just as he was taking off his pants (he had his shorts on under his jeans), his bobber went down. His Dad was holding his fishing pole for him so he set the hook and handed him the pole. We have a great picture of him with his pants around his ankles and his pole bent over fighting what turned out to be a 23" walleye. Priceless photo.

Oh man, the kodak moments are anytime you really screw something up....

Man, I am LMAO still.

I was on the Miss yesterday with Smallie Hawgin and we ran into a little problem. Literally "ran into" a problem.

Beached the boat on a gravel/rock bar. Oh, its a long story, but the path we chose would have worked, except SH lost control at the wrong time, and there you have it. Completely beached. The front half of the boat was the only thing in the water. About an inch of water at that. It took 5 guys to lift/shove the rig back to where we could finally float it away.

Too fun and too funny!

He's gonna kill me, but its worth it.

That's a great picture!

For me it was being up at a resort on the Whitefish chain. I bought a Crestliner this spring to replace my old 12' bench seat Alumacraft (which served me very well for 8 years!) & took my girls, 3 & 5, out early in the morning to let their mother sleep. They braved two full hours of fishing - I think the record was 20 minutes in the old Alumacraft. Being able to take them out in a boat where they can move around & have fun & not have to sit perfectly still, well, that means I can do a lot more fishing this summer!

I'll probably have a hard time beating the 40 or so inch muskie I caught on the 10 inch bass last week. Got pics too.

Definetly my highlight of the year would be a double on walleye's myself and a buddy had. It was his first time at our cabin in the summer and I kept on telling him we have some monster walleye's in this lake. Previously we spent 10 day's up there this past winter and never landed a walleye. I told him they are in there, but we usually catch them in the summer. He couldn't believe when we both landed a double. One fish measured 27 1/2 inches and the other was 28 1/2 inches. All he said is yep there in here!!! We ended up catching 21 walleye's in 2 day's, not the best by most standards of quanity, but the quality was fantastic. The total on measurement was 45.5 feet of fish!

You guy's can do the math from there...

Pic of the double.

My highlight is just being up north to go fishing. I was working in the cities for 9 months with no boat no fish house for ice fishing . Anyway this is the first year of my life where the first walleye of the summer was June 20th. Anyway, give me a week and I will hopefully get a nice walleye to post a picture of.

The highlight of the year for myself was when we were sturgeon fishing and Paul Waldowski hooked up with a 50+ sturgeon and a little later I hooked up with a 48-49 incher.Both these fish were awesome.

Don't think I'm going to beat this one this summer!

Last Friday w/ my 6 and 3 year old, got on the water at 5:15pm and was getting off at 8pm.

Lots of laughs and smiles, oh, and 25-30 eyes from 18-27" weighing about 80 lbs.
