My girlfriend has been very understanding about my time away from home. My guiding, tournaments and job keep me away from home alot. She has wanted to see a musky as we have not musky fished much together this year with moving. We went yesterday and shortly before leaving I boated this 48" X 23" beauty. I was planning on going bowhunting but she asked to go fishing. It was wonderful to have her with me as she caught some nice walleyes up to 22" as well. I'm proud of her for maintaining the net, getting rods out of the way and helping me with it. Hopefully next time its her on the end of the rod.

Thanks - I was very pleasantly suprised with how that Sunset turned out. It's lake Carrol, WI. The only modification I did to the picture was scale it down and put the photo frame around it.

Not a fish (obviously), but in keeping w/ twitcher's theme, certainly a nice sunset. I do have a beautiful place to chase these uncooperative fish...

Not too many chances this year of good pics, but I'll submit my favorite so far. Lauren caught this pretty fish while fishing with me last Saturday. She's getting to be very good at this muskie fishing!

Very cool! My oldest got his first this year and my middle son got his second. My youngest has had them hit and even had a nice one to the boat before it came off. Those are the great moments, you will never forget them.

Here's a few fish caught on November Fourth, I took them in about the span of thirty minutes apart. Mine ate a 9" Suick (41 incher) and a jointed Depthraider (42 1/2 incher) that rainy November day. I kept thinking of the song "Cold November Rain" by Guns and Roses out there! Ed, my partner, caught his 36 incher on a Baby Depthraider. You can really see the rain coming down is his picture. It was chilly and wet for sure, but we caught three fish that day so we had a blast!
