Title: Fishing Trip
Post by: Hognutz on June 06, 2011, 12:47:27 PM
Got back on Saturday from my annual Minnesota fishing trip. Had a great time, despite the lousy weather. Here are a few of the pictures I took. The perch were all nice, the bluegills were nicer, and the walleyes were above average. Had a great time with my brother, uncle and cousin..Mike

Those bluegill are insane!  I've never had a chance to try yellow perch, but there are some lakes here with good perch fishing if you catch it right.

Sorry to disappoint you, lking. I am a Yooper by birth, but have lived in Wi. for 50 some years. The gist of the matter is, when I eat, I eat, when I drink, I drink...Being a retired Ironworker, I have spilled more beer than most people have drank. That was then, This is now..With that being said, ice cold chocolate milk tastes pretty darn good with a fish fry. Mike :you_rock:

The biggest one this year was 1# 6oz. The picture that I added here is one that I caught 3 years ago. It weighed in at 1# 8oz. on a certified scale. They are some big butt gills, for sure. Kinda like winding in a hubcap. Great fun..
Mike
