Mine is a reminder of two of my favorite hunts ever.

The smaller bull was Yakima 2001. My favorite hunt EVER. We bugled bulls in 7 straight days (really, I promise). Never done any thing like it before or since. I called a big 6X6 to my partner on the opener, but he missed it. It got mine on day 2 (took him 45 minutes to come within range), and we called bulls in on days 3-7 (partner had a rough year). On day 6, I called in a huge 6X6 broadside at less than 30 yards to me - my partner couldn't see him. I could have nailed him but we don't party hunt (I was armed in case I saw a bear).

The bigger bull I got at 24 paces this year. I was actually scared for my safety after I shot him and he looked at me and walked my direction. He fell at about 10 yards while I was wishing there was a climbing tree nearby. What a funky rack. What a horrible pack out....

I could tell you about the really big one I almost got, but I'd start crying on my keyboard.... frown

It just makes me smile to remember.

Nothin' special here....just a couple days worth of silvers headed for the smoker. The "cookie cutter" bunch of four hanging caught my eye. beer

Just a hatchery fish I got from the Bogie in December. I just got a roll of film back and this was one of the better pics.

I was having a resolution issue with mine but just got it resolved (thanks for the help, Fun5Acres). Let's see what it looks like.

It's a 44" x 22.25" buck I caught in British Columbia in 2001. I'll keep looking for a bigger one of course, but common sence tells me it may not happen.

mine has nothing to do with fishing but is the Logo of one of my favorite bands, The Offspring !!!!
Being a musician and X- band member I had to put up something a bit different.

My First King over sixty. Mearsured something like 51 x 31. Caught in the salt. Immature fish. Would have liked to seem him the following year. Same day, commercial troller fishing same area landed a King that dressed out at 84lbs. Estimated weight of 93. At the time they were getting about a dollar a lb. $100 dollar fish, somethings wrong.

Was that a red or a white king?

Just one of my dozens of 20+ Zipperlip fish :p

Taped at 26-27 pounds or so, caught several bigger, but framing worked best for an avatar pic.

'Bout time for a new one ... maybe I'll find a new pic in Aruba!

I can force avatar size, but it would have to be a perfect square to do so ... and I hate to do that. I just trust that folks will try to keep them reasonable. If you need help with that, email me and I can usually help!

What do you play? I play the bass and some guitar. Offspring is cool but I'm more of a classic rock guy. Kinda odd since I'm almost 16.

ZEPPELIN ROCKS!!!!

edit: Oh and thanx for all the replies!

Just a nice evening on the sound last summer, on the way back from PNP with a full cooler of pinks and coho.
Thanks Andy for taking the nice pic.
