Images

Keep in mind that I am always looking for images for our newsletter; fish, sunsets, sunrises, other anglers fishing, equipment, anything fishing related. I can use them all.  Large, unedited images are best. Thanks.

I have fished the south gap late October and November for the last few years with Mike Crehan in his Tracker. My boat is still in so we hit the water today at 7AM. It rained all the way to Rich but let up as I parked.  North wind made river jigging difficult so we took a chance of the south gap. Didn't run into any debris from Sundays heavy rains. Put on a RH (I think that is Rolly Himmlich ???) perch bait that Tom Page selected for me at last years banquet.  Trolled at 3.75mph, 70' back, close to the wall opposite Cargill. Nice strike and landed a 38" ski.  No tag, no marks or bruises.  A few jump/rolls.  Nice fatty. No picture as my camera said memory locked. No big deal. Real clean release. First south gap fish in years. Had to do the same troll to get a brother or sister.  No ski luck but I got a 32" northern on the same lure, 15 minutes later. My camera is now ready. Hope that is not bad luck!

Congrats on a miracle.. My best river fish was caught on a Riley Himmrich lure. Tom Page steered you right.

That's the way to do it, FAS. Congrats!!
