My record catch was a 45 lb Yellowfin Tuna on a spinning rod with 12 lb test line. Took 2 hours to get it in. I love catching football size Tuna on a spinning rod, nothing better! (Great eating too, and maybe a few Mai Mai thrown in for good measure!)
I had a picture of two muskies courting in the spring that I took from the boat but that phone got wiped and the photo is NLA from the fishing forum I had posted it on.
It had a silver 50" being courted by a brown 42". Really cool to see.
I still remember when I caught my first musky. Maybe around 36" not a monster , but after all that casting it was awesome....I caught him at lake Webster in northern Indiana....I also caught my first dog fish or bowfin, atleast a 10 pounder, damn thing looked like a snake head..... It was night and I had had a "few" beers during the day and was just trying to catch something off of the dock, hopefully a big musky as I had a chub on... I have pics some were I will look for them, sure glad I didn't try to lip that bowfin they got lots of teeth too....
Almost time for some more birch beer!
Well I got even more wood home this afternoon.
Between hauling loads from that yard tree scrounge home I hauled home that oak I found yesterday and bucked it up.

I never caught a muskie
Here are the piles. I'll be busy for a while now!
I never caught a Muskie or a Pike.
But, real soon I'll be free to cut some wood!
This all came from my neighbor.omg! that looks like almost... an entire forest... u beeb bizzee! way to go, good pix, nice haul...
Last spring when @chucker was here helping my harvest my trees the neighbor stopped and asked if he would be interested in a tree job. He came up this winter and cut down a bunch of yard trees and cleared a spot for their new bunkhouse and parking lot. I'm going to net about 6.5 cords out of this deal, about 2/3 hardwood!
Just got my taxes back today. Stuck it to the unc real good last year, although he kicked my butt for the prior two years before that.

Kindling and firewood starting to pile up in the trailer at my current jobsite. Most of it from dead pines. This stuff will go in the Campfire/Firepit wood pile. Elm and ash will be next, as soon as I get all the dead crapwood cut out of the fenceline. At least I can just fell most of these. The big ones near the house and outbuildings, I'll have to climb. Supposed to start raining on Saturday and keep it up for a week. I got lots of other things at home that need to get done, so I'm actually looking forward to the break.
