Exactly 25 lbs 0 oz., Old Hickory Lake, TN

Pickerel/ Walley

Prior World Record: Greers Ferry Lake, AR

We don't catch as many in the Mid South as you do up north, but we grow 'em big, real big.

You could make some money down here pickerel guiding, most of these Rebels don't have a clue about catching these fish. Very few fish for the species which might be one of the reasons they grow so large.

lol that's cool chevy I was wondering if anyone was going to get that

in buffalo ny they call walleye's yellow pike :D

I think I'm way in the hole to start!!!!

$2500.00 in rods, reels, and tackle

$15,000.00 boat

$21,000.00 truck

Thats just this year!!!! and I haven't started fishing tournaments yet!

Won't fish my first one until March 06!!

wow DD how do you do that? I need for your financial advisor to talk to mine! hahahahaha

I spent maybe 500 bucks this last year on stuff... and that was streaching it.. and I didn't make a penny on fishing either... don't look to for quite some time either

Fortuneatly for me my financial advisor (wife) loves to fish more than I do!!!

She's the only woman I know that would rather have a fishing pole for Valentines day than flowers.

;D

Some Day Maybe

I make money every time I go fishing. If I'm out on the water, I'm not in the tackle store spending money. ( I think I need to send this to my wife )

Good luck to all,

GK

Like ddBasser I'm in a rebuilding year that has got me way in the hole, even if I would have won every prize in the only tournament i fished, unfortunately I did not win a single prize.  It helps when you weigh a fish in.  ;D

Since my last post on 26 Oct, I have added two more checks, not big, got my entries back, plus expenses, I am 4 out of 7, with two more tourneys the next 2 weekends to go.
