There's 'gators in Champlain!

Post by Crayfish »

And I caught a big one! Check out the story my son wrote up of our latest fishing adventure. Biggest pike I've ever seen ... let alone actually caught!

There's other stories on his blog, as well, if you've got time for some reading. He hasn't written much lately due to school and work duties, but he graduates from MMU tomorrow and will hopefully be able to write up some stories of our adventures this summer.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I made sure to show my son your responses!

I think you're right, Matt. A 15+lb Northern is more impressive than a 6lb+ salmon. Time for a change!
