Here's a 29" channel cat from today. Shot him drifting with the bow in about 5' of water. game fish are legal with bow n arrow after July 1st here,...and the steaks are going on the grill!

[whisker]

Here's this years archery paddlefish. I'll throw it in the contest for something new to look at!



Before I filled that tag I took a shot at one I saw rolling out the corner of my eye, (only saw the tail) and scored me a nice bonus fish!

[glenn57]

what do you do with those critters after the photo opt?

[Ude Lake Tom]

I heard that paddlefish were the poor man's lobster.

[whisker]

Paddlefish is some of the best tasting fish you can eat! So are the bighead. Both are plankton filter feeders with VERY good firm white meat. Just as good as walleye and a close second to crappie.

[Sandmannd]

That's a nice paddlefish whisker. Thanks for putting up the pic.

[glenn57]

i use northern pike for that. pretty good too!!!!!

[backsmasher23]

Definitely would like to try paddlefish someday, have eaten sturgeon when a buddy speared one out of Winnebago and boy was that good!

[BuckKiller]

53 inch 32 pound musky caught last monday.

[fish-n-fool]

I heard that paddlefish were the poor man's lobster.

I thought that was eelpout.   

[glenn57]

kinda figured you wouldnt know, seeing as you head striaght to the REAL STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fish-n-fool]

That's what they call the eelpout backstraps at LOTW... Tried it and it actually wasn't that bad...(and I don't do lobster)

Since I am a light eater, I'll just stick to a couple crappies. That'll leave all that other white meat for ya'll.

Caught a nice 8.25 inch sunny today.

[Sandmannd]

Nice sunny for sure!! 

[MnMike58]

We went out trolling for Northerns today only caught 4. While trolling I caught an 8.5 inch crappie. Its not all that big, but thought I would share it.

[Ude Lake Tom]

Depending where it was caught, an 8.5 inchers in the some lakes is a decent crappie.  I always hate it when the wrong fish hits..

[BuckKiller]

must have forgot to post this.... from a week and a half ago

16 pound 32 inch carp

[perch]

wow looks like I need to get it in gear and get my card ready to go with me on the next trip 

[whisker]

Caught this 15" crappie today. 1/6oz. black jig with black/chartreuse tube.

Thought I had a pic holding it, but it didn't take.

[Driftwood]

Wow!  Nice crappie Whisker!

[backsmasher23]

Nice fish...looks like you got hungry and took a bite out of your control card...lol!

[Sandmannd]

That is a monster Crappie, congrats!! 

[whisker]

Went out for some bass last night. Beautiful evening, and the wind was down for a change. The fat lady ain't singing yet!!!

About 19" and "chunky". Caught on 10 inch green pumpkin power worm.

[whisker]

This one might be a tad bigger than last weeks! Caught on a 1/32 oz. chartruese curly tail.


(Control card went for a lil swim)

[Sandmannd]

Nice crappie Whisker. That's a beast of one.

Folks we are going to rap up the contest at the end of this weekend. So the last day to get pictures up is going to be Monday, October 4th!!
