28" muskie on a Squirrely Burt on my first solo trip of 2006... wish I had better pix, I was fishing by myself but had to have a photo - it was so darn cute - definitely in the top 3 of prettiest muskies I've caught.

Then had to share a photo of the same young man I have posing with his 41.5 replica in the "my kid can outfish yer kid" post.... fair is fair....

My smallest, taken on a 5 1/2" Husky Jerk, was about 18" also. Who knows for sure? It went back asap w/o being measured and 18 is a nice, round number. I have caught a 5" Northern on a 4 1/2" Spook. The poor thing must've thought it was gonna last all summer on that one meal. This Largemouth took a Jitterstick as big as itself. Talk about picking on someone your own size...

Not the smallest bass I've ever caught, but pretty close.

Scott Webster,

I'm not trying to knock ya, but that my friend, is a northern pike...you can clearly see the scales on the lower half of the cheek. Muskies only have scales on the top half of the cheek. Great picture though! It's really hard to tell those little guys apart.

Here is some pics of some crazy perch and a little monster bass. What are these fish thinking?

Didn't catch it but I had a ski, no more than 15-16 inches launch itself head first into the side of my friends boat. Just as I made the first turn in my "8" this little dart shot a foot out of the water and hit the boat so hard my buddy thought I smacked my rod against the hull. I nearly pissed myself it was so funny.

Pulled up to an island to take a "break" and it was just drifting along in the rocks. A natural recruit, pretty cool.

It's tough to say, I think it was fine. At that age they can maneuver about as good as Andre The Giant in a porta potty.
