Papajoe222 is what I go by on most of the forums that I frequent. I've beem bishing for most of my 62yrs. and for the most part I fish artificials. Born and raised in Chicago, I mainly fish natural lakes, although I have fished Table Rock and a few other impoundments. I've been a member of a local club for over 30yrs. and have learned a lot of lessons on those waters that have paid off on others. My personal best LM was 7lb.3oz. caught last year. Prior to that it was a 6lb.7oz. caught on the same lake 16yrs.ago.
Although my passion is bass fishing, I also love tangling with musky and will often combine a trip so that I can target them both. My favorite lake for that is in northwest Wiscon and I take two trips there almost every year.
I mainly fish alone from my Tracker, but my favorite fishing partner is my wife and she has outfished me on a number of occasions when I abandoned my strategy of letting her beat me.

Welcome home!
The people that hate you, don't know you. They dislike the funhouse mirror image they have of you.
