A few fish from Lake Ontario

Here are just a few of the fish I caught up at Lake Ontario. I feel blessed that I had such a great opportunity to spend all the time I did on the water. I spent ten of twenty days fishing. Eight observing in the tournaments and two as a passenger on the charter of a new friend. Got to experience 7 different boats in four different ports and learned something from all of them.

I landed a ton of fish and managed to lose a few. I also witnessed many more caught and lost during the course of the tournaments. I wish I could have got pictures of all of them. The people in each crew were an experience in itself. Made friends with all. This summer will be one I will never forget. Could never have done it without the misfortune of being laid off. Then again I lived just a little more than I would have otherwise. :paint:

One of 5--20#+ King's caught on a 600' copper down the chute. These things will give you a workout!:pullup:

good looking salmon, mike. are they good to eat, or do they glow in the dark??? i know lots of inland lakes the salmon have lots of mercury. are those as good as they look?

They are great eating, Steve! Especially when they are fresh. In moderation of course.
