Is it just me, or are you skinnier?   

-Allen

Doh!  I forgot that I made that into a Thumbnail for my avatar on several sites.

It is fixed now.

Is it just me, or are you now fatter?   

-Allen

And where is your PFD?  I'm seriously thinking about deleting pics that demonstrate bad form ... hmm, that would be too big brotherish of me.

-Allen

26 inches huh? Ok, it's on! I can top that!  

At least it gives me something to shoot for other than Lings and Cabezon!
Then again we have our own Ling.(Have the Ling (Cobia) made their run up your way yet?)

And that's a very nice Red!
But aren't you a bit warm?

It would! Especially when you in water that you could walk home in.

Then why does he need a drysuit?

Um, to stay dry?

-Allen

because he's getting ready for his next Alaska trip?

Ok, Ok, I give!
He should be burned at the stake for not having his PFD on in the pic.
(even though the drysuit he's cooking in would float him like a cork)





Note: Pay no attention to the man tupperware boat! He wears his pfd to bed at night.

That picture was in January, when the water and air was friggen COLD...  Water Temp around 45, air temp maybe one or two higher... 

As for no PFD, I forgot and left it in the trunk.. I usually wear a inflatable, due to the heat here... 

But on this day, the water was 3 feet deep where I was fishing, at tops, I scraped pluffmud and sand bottom on the way there several times...  Besides, I float like a cork in that drysuit....   

Ask ArmyJim and JonS about my trip down the Little Susitna last year while wearing it!

I didn't catch it, and it's not a kayak, but my best friend caught it.  42# out of Dela Croix, LA.  We fished many times in the Louisiana marsh.  He is now deceased.  Not a great photo, but taken in 2005 with a cell phone camera.

Went "camping" with the boyz last week. Started out blustery with tornado warnings blaring through the campground advising us to get out of the tents and get in your car.  So what I'd do?
I went fishing, but I didn't do a thing ( I thought fish were supposed to on the chew when a storm is approaching (eminent!) ). 
The next day was clear and warm but windy.
Saturday was better but the fishing slow,, until the afternoon.





40+ inches as she was much longer than my 32" inseam leg and hung over both sides of the boat and was still bent. No decent pictures of the best Red that I've caught in skinny water (1' to 4') has me revising the self-assembling vanity camera mount. Stay tuned for details.

wow! awesome fish! but the way you talking to that fish hope I don't meet you in no dark alley lol!http://www.northwestkayakanglers.com/Smileys/Lots_O_Smileys/party_47.gifhttp://www.northwestkayakanglers.com/Smileys/Lots_O_Smileys/banjo.gifhttp://www.northwestkayakanglers.com/Smileys/Lots_O_Smileys/shocked.gif
