I take a lot of pictures, but not as many as I should. There are moments from the past I wish I had pictures of.

Angie takes way more pictures than I do, but she doesn’t like the big water so I have what I do from those times I can stop fishing for a few minutes (and get my various shy fishing partners to hold still long enough). Here’s some more older archive photos I hope you enjoy at least partly as much as I enjoyed the moments they come from…

Interesting about this old photo of me in my ‘Fudd’ outfit, I was cranking the Grand for salmon on a snowy February 1 & started popping smallmouths despite conventional wisdom saying they should be ‘dormant.’
