Location: Racine, Wi | I got the rare chance to fish with my brother Friday night, where he stuck his 1st slime of the year. We stuck it out after blanking in 3 hours of trolling, and decided to cast. He got this 40.5 about a half hour later.  We could have doubled, but little tuffy doesn't like to actually catch the fish that hit his bait.  It was a great night regardless.
Then Sunday, my nephew asked me to take him musky fishing. So, being the great uncle I am, I said Ok. We raised a fish on a weagle right away, then 5 mins later, my nephew caught his first musky. A 36" tiger!!! The cool thing is he caught it on a hawg wobbler, and did a great job fighting it. :)
To make things just as good, I took my niece out for a half hour of bluegill fishing in the paddle boat. This is a picture of her good buddy. She wouldn't throw it back, because she had to talk to the "baby fish". It eventually found its way home.
This was a great weekend in the Tuffdaddy fishing world. Just wanted to share some of the pics.

| Joel,
Way to go putting the family members on nice fish...I can't wait to get out with you again, maybe one night next week after work if you are available?
Take care,
Steve | |

If you've ever looked at my photo album you gotta know how much I appreciate your pictures. I've given up hundreds of fish as an adult so friends and family could have a good chance of catching a memory. I got a gift from my 16 year old nephew last week. I've provided many opportunities for him to fish since he was a little shaver and as a token of his appreciation he bought me the Tracker pro tournament shirt. I don't fish tournaments but he knows I'm proud of my used Tracker deep-vee and you can bet I'll be proud to wear my colors because they came from him.
It's the little things that make life meaningful. Thanks for sharing the pics and story. | |

Location: Racine, Wi | SD, those are some great pics. It is always good to remember who is around you. It can be easy to get overwelmed with other things. I am lucky to be able to enjoy those trips with da kids.
Steve, give me a call or pm me and I'll see what I can do. We've been busy with the new house (messssssy) and getting it organized, but I may be able to sneak out at some point.
