Every year between Christmas & New Years I would go to Toledo Bend for my birthday present.

This is the middle of our winter so we're fishing deep offshore structure!

This one of my then month old grandson is my current favorite.

Getting him started on the frog early, way to go!!

I have two favorite pics.

 

The first one is of my grandad, who taught me how to fish. It was taken on the last fishing trip we did together, he just took it easy and threw a bobber catching sunfish while I fished for bass. He passed away on Thanksgiving Day 2015.

 

 

The other one is the first pre-spawn bass I ever caught, she weighed in at over 4 lbs. Got her on a Scatter Rap Crank.

 

 

I have both these photos framed on top of my desk.

Great stuff. I miss a few of my relatives that are gone. The trout fishing, bass fishing, deer and turkey hunting. But I have young grandsons that I get out. When I'm gone they will have more than enough stuff to use. Glad you and him shared the experiences.

Thanks 

 

I think of him especially when I'm on the water. We had a great time.

My 23 1/2" 6 pounder. I've caught a 7 lb but I don't have any goods pics since it was at night and I was by myself.

 Yes sir it was an awesome experience! I had never caught anything close to that big and I knew from the raw power she was big, it being night made it all the more mysterious and exhilarating! 

This one is growing on me. Got my lil guy some new fishing clothes and gear last week. Here he is hard at work with his Tatula flippin combo. 

@DINK WHISPERER, it looks like he's taking your signature to heart

?? Yes sir he is! His arm and wrist hurt at the end of the day but he will not give up! So proud of that guy. 

Well, this isn't me, but it is my favorite fishing photo.  This was a friend of ours (green shirt) when we lived in the Bahamas.  He is Canadian, and some of the guys with him are Bahamian, others are winter residents.  They did a fishing day southeast of our island at a place called the Diana Banks and came back with this catch - 11 wahoo and 2 dolphin/dorado/mahi-mahi.  I got a few wahoo fillets out of the deal.

 

Note the wahoo lying on the dock with it's tail missing.  That is a constant threat when fishing down there... sharks are drawn in by the commotion of fighting and landing fish - I lost as many as I landed on many fishing days there.

 

 

 

Here is mine.

This 6 pounder isn't my PB but I caught it about 30 seconds after my Ned-rig-hating friend declared that Ned doesn't produce big fish.  He was at BPS the next day buying Ned rig tackle.

reminds me of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGz-NIBZwEw

This is my new PB. Got her in Virginia at 730 am, it was 40 degrees out, and the water was misty/foggy because water temps were warmer than outside... Tossed the topwater frog out by a stump and she came ALL THE WAY out of the water and inhaled the frog. Insane fight. You can see how happy I am. I left my scale in the truck, but she measured 24 3/4" long. A Virginia citation in length (state is 22" or 8 pounds). My previous PB was this July, weighing 6.10. This fish was far longer and heavier. Amazing fish. Tight LINES!!!!!!!!

I have quite few favorites, but this is my latest "favorite" fishing picture.  My 3 year old with her first musky...

This is my all time favorite because it represents the culmination of 15-20 years of chasing a dream.  

 

 

 

 

My favorite fishng pictures aren't about big fish or about a big limit...they are about places and now and then about people fishing....

 

I took the picture below on the Bighorn River late one April day a few years back...

 

 

...end of the day, last day of the trip with good friends...I was waiting at the take out while the rest of the crew went to get the trucks so we could pull the drift boats and go eat, have a couple beers and tell lies...

 

the only noise was the river burbling along, and a couple pheasants cackling off in the distance.

Beautiful photo!  

 

This is my most exotic fishing photo.  This is a catfish caught in the Lufupu River in Kafue National Park, Zambia, Africa (the Lufupu is a tributary of the Kafue that joins just above our camp).  I had the chance to go fishing for one of the three days we were at the safari camp in Zambia, so I took it.  We caught several African Pike, similar to pickerel, but the guide and I both hooked one of these big cats.  He said it was actually quite unusual to even see one cat on a 6 hour outing, so 2 was very rare.  it was an interesting day, finding fish while keeping away from the hippos that were numerous in the river.  This is the cat that the guide caught... unfortunately I didn't get a photo of mine, although it was virtually identical.  The second photo is the sunset over the Kafue River that night after we got back to camp. 

 

 

This is probably my favorite fishing photo. It’s of my oldest daughter with her limit of salmon, her grandfather (my dad), and me after our salmon fishing trip to the Farallon Islands, which are located about 26 miles west of the Golden Gate Bridge. Our first salmon trip together was when my daughter was 10 years old and she also caught her limit. I am glad for the memories of this day as two weeks after this photo was taken my dad died of leukemia.

My grandpa on the left and old man Sims . Grandpa use to come and get me before the sun rose and we would sit on the bank of the Mississippi trying for a carp or channel cat . I dont remember ever catching a fish but I remember eating cinnamon rolls .
