Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | The first Okuma Monthly Photo Contest was a grand-slam victory, taken of a fish in an amazing pose! Can you top that one this month? Or, just enter your best or favorite photo of something with a muskie in it....or not....and the crack photo analysis crew of me, Lambeau and Mark Rogers of Okuma Fishing will be the judges!
Make sure to check out not only the rules below, but Okuma Fishing, supporter of so many MuskieFIRST events at http://www.okumafishing.com
Pretty basic rules: A new thread will be started at the beginning of every month, and will be active for one week. Contestants will enter a picture of a fish caught recently by posting to the Okuma Fishing Monthly Photo Contest thread. At the end of that week myself, Mark Rogers of Okuma (California_Muskie screen name) and Mike Winther (lambeau) will judge the pictures. Judging will be based on photo quality and presentation versus being judged soley on fish size. Pictures should be related to muskie fishing, but do not necessarily need to include an actual fish. Enter as many times as you want, but you can only enter each picture one time.
Please make sure to check out the new Red Isis reel, the EvX line of rods and my personal favorite, the Induron reels. Thanks again to Okuma Fishing for their continued support of MuskieFIRST and our users!

| The pants and slime are plusses. The backwards gofer hat and the cell phone on the hip are minusses.
I like the kids first, with the tie-dyed shirt. Takes me back about 35 years.
Sorno, you always win for the prettiest fish and scenery.
Hammski, if you would have turned the boat to get that golden sunset shining on that fish, or turn it enough to block out the sun completely and create a glow around you, that would have beel a very cool shot.
I'm glad to see some nice fish coming aboard for guys.
Cady is guiding again?
