Not trapping but is my current WI outdoors adventure. Got out on the river by myself Monday boated some Walleyes. Then again yesterday with my son. Monday I managed to boat just two keeper walleyes both in the 5lb range didn't weight them but they measured 22 inches. Yesterday we only boated just two fish total but both keepers. The one my son is holding in the pic is a 22 inch 5lb fish which I did weigh. Two in the cooler are the ones I boated Monday. No one to take a pic of me and I don't do selfies. so just fish in the box. Most the time we throw these bigger fish 20 inch or bigger back. But I took every bit of fish I had in my freezer to the T-man cook out at WTA in September. Haven't been fishing since then. So being I wanted some fish for New Years Eve fish fry. These are first fish came home since September, I don't have to buy any for our annul New Years Eve -- Surf & Turf. Mac

Yep Muskrat pic of my son is Dresbach I was at Genoa on Monday. Caught more fish at Genoa on Monday and the landing is easier dozen boats out. Was kind of looking to get into some perch but didn't find them or at least they didn't bite, I'm sure they are there. So we went to Dresbach yesterday thinking maybe we could find the perch there but didn't.. That landing is a bit sporty with ice so was only two other boat out. That at least keeps the bigger boats and guys away. Fish just didn't turn on while we were there and that is how it goes. This time of year it can take just one or two cold nights to freeze out Dresbach completely. Genoa take several cold days, even then I can usually get in below the power plant just is a very small area to fish. Mac

Great job as always Cable. I follow your thread every day to see how you're doing.
57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.
