Here's some more. And, yes, there are walleyes on this

These beautiful rainbows (8.5 & 5 lbs.) were
caught in fall '98 on Higgins Lake, using ESB's. |

Here's older son, Ian, with a nice 12 inch perch from
Houghton Lake. He doesn't really like fishing (I don't know why - he
catches a lot), but his little brother's burgeoning web presence has
him envious. |

My wife, sister, and brother-in-law teamed up with me
to take these 16 walleyes from Houghton Lake. Summer '98. ESB
prototypes were a significant factor. |

Ryan got this gorgeous 4 lb. smallie on Houghton Lake
2 years ago. Bass fisherpersons, take note - there are lots of these
in Houghton Lake. With plenty of walleyes and panfish to eat, we let
most of them go. This one, however, wound up on the wall. |

Both my boys with some nice Houghton Lake bluegills.
Graphic proof that we could achieve world peace if everyone fished. |

Maybe the finest morning of fishing I've ever had. In
the space of 4 hours, I caught 3 dozen rock bass, 2 dozen pike, 8
walleyes, 8 crappies, 4 bass, and some bluegills. This is what I
kept. The big walleye is over 5 lbs., large for Houghton Lake. |

Brother-in-law Len, with a pretty 6 lb. rainbow trout
from Higgins Lake. On a spawn bag suspended from an ESB. |

Ryan and me with a heavy stringer of walleyes and
crappies. Houghton Lake. |

A very little Ian with a big 12.5 inch crappie.
Houghton Lake. |

Your typical Houghton Lake monster bluegill. There are
lots of these here, too. |
 |
|
Sometimes, you gotta take what the lake will give you.
This 8.5 lb. pike hit a minnow/ESB rig intended for a trout on
Higgins Lake. |

Hope you enjoyed
the tour.
