Nice 'eye from the Red R. at Selkirk. This one's a female, and the egg sac's already depleted. Everythings early this year. This one's a male from the same trip. They're all greenbacks- a colour phase not often seen away from the Lake Winnipeg area. Here's one taken in daylight, to get an idea of the green phase... I've caught a lot of walleye this year. The big ones are fun, but I like the smaller eaters. There's a lot of walleye pix from this year on file, if anyone's interested... Regards, Doc Sharptail

Mid Oct. eater. 35"+ female. Weather did everything it could that day- sun, rain, snow, sleet, freezing rain, hail, and ice pellets- not to mention the pea soup thick fog that the day started with. Never seen so many weather extremes in an 8 hour period before... One of my new found Mandarin buddies. Very little english, but we communicate just fine- through the universal language of fishing. Glad to provide her with the loan of rod and tackle- seeing the results makes it all worth it. These people are friendly and generous to a fault- I'm amazed at this acceptance... This was caught by another angler- a 13" black crappie- which is a master angler award size, for this region. All the fish shown so far have been caught the same way- still fishing with frozen salted minnows on a pickerel rig... More to follow... Regards, Doc Sharptail

13" is a darn big crappie! Around here the size of my hand is considered a keeper. SW

Last one of the year: Caught Nov. 9/12 around 4 in the afternoon. Temperature was a balmy 24F. Saturday, the river started icing up enough to negate fishing from shore. If you look out the window over my right shoulder, yeah, that's snow. We got a foot of it starting on the 10th... Time to go nail a few grouse before the kamikaze centerfire deer hunters invade- road hunters Regards, Doc Sharptail

Mrs. s. does a good grilled cheese and chicken noodle soup- just the thing after a cold day on the river. I've had a lot of people telling me I should give ice-fishing a try. Looks like that'll be on the back burner for a bit. There is above freezing temps and rain forecast for this week. 'Tween seasons gonna be extended Haven't made it out for chickens yet. Lookin to try this coming friday... Regards, Doc Sharptail

I just returned to fishing after a long absence. Never realized how much I missed it. I was in norfolk for my Son Steve's retirement from the Navy and paid a visit to the Main Nex across from gate 5 The wife was looking at stuff for the grandkids and I was in the sporting goods section Isaw these R2F salt water rod& reel and decided to buy one. About a week before Sandy hit I went down to Pryibil beach to try it out Now for the most part I'm a sportsman I catch and throw them back. But this time these kids approached me asking if I would donate some of my catch to feed the hungry I told them to hang around for a while Maybe I would get lucky I did get lucky A couple minutes later I reeled in a small snapper Wasn't all that big, but you'd think I gave them a pot of gold They were delighted They put it in that cooler they were carrying around and went on their way There were a few others fishing that morning. A few hours of well spent time. Yep think I'll do some more fishing soon
