Well Blackman it's hard. A lot of work and then of course making all that room in freezers and then buying another freezer. Trust me you don't want problems. Packing all those animals out sucks!  :chuckle: great catch man. Since we're both in Tri cities we have to get together an do some fishing.

Pics from this weekend  :tup:

Dang you, haha you guys are the leaders for that derby.  I went there on Monday, caught 2 fish from the bank.  One of them would've given that top fish a run for it's money.  I put it on my girlfriend's stupid chain link stringer which I knew I shouldn't have done.  I look down while I was doing something and I see the fish a couple feet in front of me, I'm like huh?  Then notice it's off the stringer,  :bash:  Off it went 2 seconds later.  Caught another around 2-3 lbs 20 minutes after that.  Bite shut down around 1:45 PM yesterday in the afternoon.  I need to try taking the yaks you can rent there next week and try the Palouse.

I did the same thing a couple years ago. But the fish i caught bent the hooks.

Well i actually let go most of my fish. I keep them long enough to take a picture then let them go. I only keep the ones that dont look like they will make it or swallow the hook ext. Especially the big females full of eggs, I think everyone should let those fish go.
