Default Caught this bad boy Tuesday morn

First post of a pic taken with my new digi cam. And one of my best NSR walleye. 28incher


And a few from a special trip with my yumi GF







I should mention that she outfished me one of the days we were there!! It felt surprizingly good, even if I was doing most the dirty work.

Nice pics, you are lucky all around. The eyes are a nice size out of the RDR, my biggest last year was 29" but most of the big ones are around 25" to 26", so it is mostly done for me getting a bigger one. One day I would like to keep one but I fish in the catch and release section. I have not tasted a walleye yet. I guess I need to find a new spot not far from Innisfail when I am up on the weekends in a section of the river that you can keep the walleye.
Great plan to find a girl that likes to fish becuase you can get out more often or stay out longer.

Awesome! That first fish is a hog alright.

I would like to say you have great concentration but you seem to be getting outfished. Maybe your GF is dressing according to keeping your mind on other things than fishing. Thus outfishing you....

Nice that you can share this with someone.

I was out at Cold Lake with the wife this weekend. We had a great time. Just awesome! Didn't catch anything big but managed to see some decent lake trout...first time for me catching lake trout there after 3 ice outing and 3 open water outings....bad ratio!

I hear ya on that one fisherpotch. I just got engaged last week and My fiancee has made it a habit of catching more than I. I think its cause I spend half my time baiting her hook. I think you can agree, theres nothing better while fishing than watching a beautiful woman with a fish at the end of your line. I know that fishing with her this year has really rejuvanated my drive for fishing.

Nice fish!Don't feel bad about getting outfished by the girlfreind,I get outfished by my 6 year old daughter and wife most of the time,but like mulecrazy said it is because I am to busy rigging up rod's,that's the excuse I use,it make's me feel a little better,but I would rather see the two girl's in my life having fun catching fish,by the way what lake were you on in those picture's.

Thanks Boy's. The dirty work I spoke of was keeping rod's baited. Totaly worth it, I know I'm lucky and very greatful for it. The big walleye is from the NSR. Out of respect for some guys here on the forum that gave me some tips for fishing there home lake, I wouldn't feel right releasing info on what lake we were at.

Hey SNAP I think your right, but I'll allow it . In her defence for dressing so provocativly it was in the mid thirtys that weekend and I think I had more clothes on than anyone else I saw that weekend.
