Nice pics Pikeguy.  That snake is certainly swimming in the right direction.

I'm with you on the paddles. I'm the king of forgetfulness.

DNR agents are saying the snake was either a western fox snake or an eastern hognose although my pictures were to crappy to say for sure.

My dog was in the bow and tried real hard to get REAL CLOSE but then mean old me made her sit. I thought about netting it but screw that. What am I gonna do with a snake it the boat?

We had a similar situation with a creek over by lake ontario. This big brownish orange snake slid off land and headed straight for our canoe. we kept pushing away with our paddles but it was very determined to get into the canoe. We practically had to beat at the darn thing before it would go away. I still have no idea what it was but it was big and ugly and I didn't want to find out if it was poisonous or not. Great pictures.

Nice bucketmouth Pikeguy!

Thanks! With next weekends opener...and a trip North the weekend after I should have lots of great pics coming up

[Pikeguy]

Did a little fishing last Tuesday after work.. I got the old skunkaroo but my roomate Nate got into a couple smallies and one smallish pike trolling. Took a few scenery pics but nothing of the small fish

The beautiful Chippewa river right before it empties into the Mississippi


Doesn't this look like Smallmouth heaven? 



And today was a mini Christmas as some of my new toys came in from Cabelas this morning  Got a new trolling rod, a couple Raps, some new leadline as well as my first ever spool of fluorocarbon leader material....gotta see if the claims are true Also, I got a six rods rack for the den..no more leaning against the wall

Merry Xmas Pikeguy!  No golf balls?

[Fishingking]

Nice dude, be careful with that leadline I bought some of the same stuff a few years ago and it seems kind of brittle. II keep my equipment in out old  basement with the moisture and cooler temps and nopt sure it this deteriorated it or not. Just a heads up

I've got lots of those  

Nice dude, be careful with that leadline I bought some of the same stuff a few years ago and it seems kind of brittle. I don't know if keeping it in the basement with the moisture and cooler temps deteriorated it or not. Just a heads up

Thanks for the heads up, It's the same kind I have on my current rod& it was good..at least last year. I got into some fish big enough that I thought I'd respool anyways this year. I used to give leadline a couple-three years...but for ten bucks I want new line on it.

Nice stuff PikeGuy.  That's funny that you just got a Cabela's Depthmaster trolling rod because I just got one last week myself  

It's a big change from the one I have been using...(I'll have to get a pic of it.) It was my dad when he was in high school. Fiberglass 5 footer with steel line guides ..pushing 40 years old now..Time to retire it I guess.
