cool! fishin has been pretty good, for winter anyhow, have to drill through 2 feet of ice to get my line to the gills, but I need the exercise anyhow I guess ;-)
Mike, I made a mistake using another member's name when I meant to use yours. I was trying to tell John Sheehan about putting 2 spikes on a teardrop which I noticed that we share in common. Anyway, just letting you know. How's fishing been over there in MN??
that pic of the sliced gill reminds me of one i cought. it got hooked right through up through the skull. (i think through the brain im not sure) but the top of its head got riped open about an inch and a halph long. felt bad for it. it was alive when i put it back in.
Michael! Did you get aphone call a couple of nights ago, someone dude asking for Max? I have been meaning to tell ya, but keep forgetting, that was me!!!LOL Should've called ya back! Those cell phone buttons are so damn small! LOL!!! Take care!

M Caldwell,

My pond is only about 3/4 acre. I'll get a better picture this spring of some of these big guys because the angle in this pic is bad so you can't see his very large helmet. Our state record for a HBG is 1lb 12 oz so I hope…
