I guess that will be time for a kodak moment. Lots and lots of beautiful gills on a platter. I shouldn't be long before we get out gills coming out to play as well. I feel like breaking a state record this year.

I had forgot to mention that when reeling in the perch in the above pic a pike struck the perch in the belly and ripped the innards out.

[pirate] OUCH!!! I hate when that happens. A few weeks ago I went out on a boat in the ocean. We did some good fishing and I ended up with 3 1/2 Halibuts that I caught. One of them was bitten in half on the way up. I wished that I would have had my camera that day. The bite marks measured out to be that of a 6' Thresher shark.
