Can you believe that this togue, around 8 pounds, wasn't even in the top three!?This past Friday, Saturday and Sunday Jason went on his annual guys fishing weekend. This was more than just recreational fun, it was also business. It was a state wide fishing derby. You buy a ticket and then you get to enter fish. Only certain kinds of fish count...pickerel, muskie, pike, togue. For each of those four fish categories 1st place gets $1000 bucks, 2nd gets $500 and 3rd gets $250. There are also additional drawings for a four wheeler and other goodies.
Jason and his two friends caught lots of big fish. Unfortunately Jason's biggest, a 10 pounder, was a cusk...not one of the four fish that count :( . But his friend took third place in the togue category. To see a whole pictures synopsis of his trip, click here. If you wonder why all the pictures have the background whited out it's because there are actually people that will figure out where they fished based on the background, and then go plop and ice shack there or over fish it. This is top secret stuff people. You never knew fishing could be such serious business did you?!
