A poor day of fishing is still better than...

... oh hell it was a good day of fishing!  :)  37" buck. Got a matching 37" hen who wasn't thrilled with the idea of a picture.

You have my sympathies. Definitely looks like you would rather be in the office. It is cold in the river after all.

It was rough, but I'm always up for taking one for the team.

Didn't have to miss a day of work for this one, but I'd gladly have missed a week for it. Pretty sure he bit my stuff but missed him. Buddy drifted his stuff through 10 seconds later and nailed him. Epic fight, worthy of fish this size.

39.5" x 21.5", somewhere between 23-24#.
