Didnt seem like it on Monday. These were our silver and we lost 3 more. We had a mixed box of 19 with 8 Lake Trout and 5 Walleye.

No No No...there were kings. We just couldnt find any. At the cleaning station a guy had 4 of them. His mouth must of been glued shut because I asked him.... Where did you go? He said "uuhhggh hhh Dat way"

There were other boats that had 1 or 2 on the radio but nothing hot and heavy on the kings except for Grunt Man. :mad:

Male steelie. The rest are females.

Great catch Benny!

I like that you freeze all of your fish from the last three years so you have enough for 1 good picture.:lol::lol::lol:

Yeh you have to vacum seal them so they look fresh, then put vaseline on them before you take pictures. :lol::lol: Heck I think I got those fish from you when you were on the front page of the Freepress when you fished Sanny 2 years ago.:lol::lol:

The best is yet to come buddy. Dont sell till Jun 2009. You know how hot spring fishing was in the last 3 springs. I have been seeing an increase in size and numbers. Find yourself a trailer for that PIG and bring her up to Sanilac/Harbor Beach in the spring.

Ohhh it MIGHT be there. Already dumped those junk Big Jons, and am undecided if they are getting replaced. And if I had a trailer for my "pig" it sure wouldnt be over here. Its hard enough to get a crew to fish a weekend on Huron, let alone go across the state. With gas prices the way they are, I cant even talk my buddies to go fish ski's for a day. And thats local!!

I remember the good ole day's when BMT was on here posting all the time. I have not seen any post from either of those guys in over a year.
I told Jeff if he ever needs to sneak one out he can call me and I'd get him on the water too.

I think he's still hung over from the Lex tourney back in May. I think that put the nail in the coffin for his salmon career.

Yeh there are two things married men can not do when fishing. Go home happy or hung over. Wifes dont wont to put up with either..... I go home and say "fishing sucked" or "the store sold me skunky beer"

Ive been fishing for over 15 years! Wife thinks I hate it! :lol:

I can relate to that.

She loves it when I tell her "I'm never doing that tourney again" or "That damn Ben stunk up the dock all weekend". :lol::lol:

Ya I think that has alot to do with it.
Almost had him talked into staying for round 2(sat night) then getting up and fishing sometime sunday, then the phone rang and a reluctant "I gotta go" was mumbled. Hasnt been fishing since...

You guys are funny.........

I do recall having to go into linguistic combat while under the influence for you Mr. UNREEL. :lol: It sure was a good thing that I didn't drink that 2nd drink (I mean fifth) of Crown that night or I would have needed a cape to escort me around Lexington.

As far as fishing on Saturday, well- we did manage to place one place out of the money and missed big fish by .03 pounds............:mad:

That and the hangover put a cap on my fishing season. I went eye fishin a couple of times- never got out perch or musky fishin all season:confused:

I guess I am saving my free-dates for the upcoming Duck season:p

Best of luck to you guys up there- go get em.

Jeff- BMT

Linguistic combat?

Thats a good one...

Go ahead...blame the Crown all you want my friend.

As I can recall, I picked the fight with Mr. Know It All, when out from the darkness came " Captain Kick-Ass"..

Had to calm down a bar full of good ol boys from whippin the both of us (good thing they are all on my payroll)

Captain kick Ass... sounds better then BMT. Everytime I see BMT I'm thinking Bacon/Egg/Cheese Biscuit.

Hey captain Kick-***, make some weekends open in the spring buddy!
Have fun Ducken!
