    Our friend’s kid is going to college on a fishing scholarship. BTW, those ugly ass sunglasses are the brainchild of a guy who lives down the street. He’s killing it.


    If I had known then what I know now...

    That's a dope scholarship.  Are those sunglasses the Pit Vipers or Pit Bosses lol? I forget what they're called.

    Pit Vipers. I became friends with the owner after we always ran into each other at the dog park. He would be wearing those ugly glasses and I’d think “good luck with that.” What do I know? The kids love ‘em.

    I once met the dude who made 'pillow pets' at a hot dog stand!
    Unless he was trying to lure me into his big black van :/

    not me but a nj record landlocked salmon. Inspires me to keep trying. If I ever hooked into that I'd think I had a car tire or log.

    Surprised to get a bass. Very beautiful spot. Was just planning to cast a little to get the kinks out of my stuff. Saw the bass come in and munch the lure. Water is crystal clear.

    Trying out a new ultra light 6 maybe 7 foot rod. Not sure I like it. Really zero hook setting strength. Do like the sensitivity. 
    Whatever!!
    Happy to hook into one.

    Wow Rob! Thx for the pics. The one with the stripes looks like a fish here we call yellow perch or 'tiger' perch. People say they taste good. Big fish.
    Great catching. Super sweet!

    Yes that is a perch
     It's a particularly big one actually they are normally small . Spines along the back
     This was my biggest perch ever. A lovely fish

    Honestly looks like a record catch. Huge! Was waiting for you to get your line out there. Way to go.

    I'm guessing a female full of eggs.
    I have caught 100's and 100's of perch. Some real nice jumbo's too.
    But holy fuck that is a HUGE PERCH!
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    On this small lake they have chub up to 7lb. That's ridiculous size. I went there about 15 years ago and everything was small. Now I've gone back and it's all got oversized. I think the carp are around 18lb max so not so much those

    Going out tomorrow AM on a guided trip with the 10 yr old.  Always excited for some fishing action!
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
