Thanks guys Thats what its all about!!! I love to fish But I get just as much satisfaction watching a young kid catch a fish and hope they stay hooked to keep the sport alive!!!

FANTASTIC photos, guys!!!   Especially yours, Slap!!!

Makes me miss those reservoirs on summer evenings.  I used to live right over the hill from the Rondout and Neversink (Claryville) and spent a whole lotta' evening pounding BIG smallies from Cooney's Point.

Those fish used to HAMMER topwaters at sunset.   Like they wanted to smash the lure into pieces.

What a place...  I never spent much time chasing the trout in the rowboat (only shore fished 'em in the Spring), but those sure are some beauties!

(I remember convincing myself that I was catching big Landlockers when I first discovered those Seaforellen Browns...  I assumed they came out the discharge pipe from the Neversink, but it didn't take long for my neighbors to correct me and let me know those are, in fact, Brown Trout, haha...   Never did get a darn Landlocker out of the Neversink, and man alive did I try....)

AWESOME STUFF, GUYS!

Beautiful picture (as usual) Mike!  Sure is a lot of talk on this board about Suttons as of late. Maybe I should break some of mine out and give them a chance again.
