Posts: 193 Location: Mayer, MN | Well, after my 20 month old little girl went down for the night and my wife was asleep on the couch I had my opportunity to carve a pumpkin. I am looking forward to see if any kids/parents recognize what it is tonight during trick-or-treating. Kids that get it will get a little more candy of course. Sorry I didn't get a girth or length measurement on this catch. Last one is "Esox Diablo" the Devil Muskie.

Posts: 336 Location: Lino Lakes, MN | Great work man. Here is a picture of a pumpkin that I finished the other night. My girlfriend officially thinks I'm insane. I can't wait to see her reaction when she gets into the boat with us for the first time this coming weekend...she has only seen pictures to this point so hopefully she gets a chance to see one up close and personal. I'm still shocked that I came away from this carving with all of my fingers. Attachments ---------------- MuskiePumpkin.jpg (55KB - 267 downloads) | ||

Posts: 193 Location: Mayer, MN | I started with the safety knife but finished with the fillet knife. The safety knife leaves things a little jagged, but the fillet knife cuts like butter and smooths it out nice. Most work my fillet knife has gotten in years. Another trick I found was sketching it out on paper then taping it on and tracing really hard with a ballpoint pen. It left an indent on the pumpkin to cut out. Next year maybe we should think about haing a carve off. | ||
