I haven't fished for five years (PATHETIC, HUH?), but here's an old pic I like because the bass was so dogged. She blew up on my lure and missed, so I retrieved rapidly to cast again and she chased my lure, missing it again, so I reeled even faster to try again and she hit right beside the canoe. A bass as green as Ireland on 24 inches of line is a hoot and a half! Note how wet my shirt is. I was in Shamu's splash zone.
I will paddle eternal, Kevlar and carbon.

quote walleye_hunter: "This was my daughters first summer fishing so it's really hard to decide but I'll go with this one. She caught 4 nice walleyes on this spot faster than I've ever seen the same person catch 4 walleyes.

Great picture, thanks for sharing! I always love to see the next generation out there fishing the Boundary Waters.
I have a similar spot up in Quetico like the one you mention. Me and my partner paddled about 50 yards from camp and I drop down a jig head with a plastic leech and as soon as it got close to the bottom I had a fish on before my partner could even cast. He had the stringer so I swung the fish up to him. Before he could get that one strung I had another one on. This happened two more times. My bow partner never got a cast off. We ( I ) caught our Quetico limit for lunch in maybe 5 minutes or slightly more. My partner says to me "can I at least make a few casts before we head back in". I think I ended up with like 17 before we left and we weren't there long. They were hitting what was left of my plastic leech. I called it nub fishing since that was all that was left on my jig head was the nub of the leech head, it was ridiculous.

I think I would die if I went 5 years without fishing

Holy-moly, what is that beast? Do tell! "
My buddy hooked him in Pickerel narrows. Caught him on a blue Rattle trap. Took two boats to land the 46 incher. Doug was excited to say the least."
Wow! What a thick fish!!!! Any other photos of the fish?
