ok, I got your pics....


this is how jason and many other seasoned anglers hold a largemouth:


here's a jag josh caught and there's pbass's hand coming in from the left to take hold of the jag as he would a largemouth:


BUT WAIT J! JAGS HAVE TEETH!


Too late. Josh told him to, "Go 'head."


what else would you do with some fresh blood and a nearby guardrail besides profess your devotion:

lol. nice

More pics of big ass jags PLZ???!!!1

I'm just going to upload as many pics as they'll let me on my free membership....

me with a uro


rare arboreal gar:


little oscar... check out the extension on those pelvic fins.


one of the bigger uros... this one was probably 9"


j with the one gar caught via hook and line (big momma)

basically every drive looked like this.


jags and oscar in collecting bins. Bins were 20-24" long... you do the math.


Josh has the rest of the pics for uploading. They'll look better when he does them and you can see the rest of the jags and such.

whats the fish thats on its side. lol

that 6" oscar from before

awesome trip! We almost caught a monster bowfin had to be close to 20"

Friday night a 4' gator hit my buzzbait...reeled it in about 20 feet before it snapped my line

Looking good slutz. I am going to have to make it down for one of these trips.

umm, very tempting, my cousin lives in FL, somewhere called happy something ville or something...

there was a canal where we saw some huge peacock bass, atleast 20" but for some reason they weren't biting,, in the same place were some big midas cichlids as well which were also not biting so we went looking for the gars,,

Chris post some gar fishing pics,,,

lmfao, aboreal gar....

that was Machete's gar...but it died during a daring tree climbing stunt

Thats a nice gar hanging from a branch.

tell me about it. That gar was awesome.... but I think the owner of the gar was being debated up until it's death. Mark was laying a pretty strong claim to it.

here that gar is shoe-horned into the 20" long styro.

DAM MENGZ DATS TYTE!!!11 LOLolOLolOLolOloLoLOl

nice were was this again for got to look

a massive pleco with scoliosis:


the gar bounty (just for you nishoo )



has no idea about the impending doom of the cast net


flossing the kickass new camera:


banana spider in the exotic Weiss compond (body around 2.5" long):


yay! another bullhead!


off to the left (that little white glimmer by itself) is j's nice buzz-bait... lost it 20' offshore on our (a little over-zealous) first night.


I better stop there for now... this thread should have a load warning. Sorry.

did you guys bring any small gars back?

We caught small gars, but for some reason, they all kicked the bucket at marc's place. Sorry I've been so slow with the pics, but, my mother is visiting, and, well, she's kiking it up by making me clean every square inch of my apartment. *sigh* Later tonight guys, later tonight.

what?!?! gars are the hardest fish to kill?! wtf? i was expecting you guys to ship me some. *sigh*

a gator...probably only 25 feet away on the other side of the canal



another uro


canal...this is where the bowfin was almost caught and the tree gar was caught

as close as we came to the midas... but J's been reading up and we know how to get them now.



the big gar... josh decided to put the strap for my camera in its mouth. It immediately clamped down, cute.


part of mark's setup. Some dats, an undescribed pike and a big LEGAL frt. Yeah, legal.... eat your heart out.


some of mark's sweet stori (sp?) mini monitors. They were like 8" total and in an AWESOME lush setup.


i took this from nishant's car going about 60mph to illustrate how closely josh tails people just on habit. He could have open lanes on either side but he'd be this close. wacko.

hahah very nice pics

too bad you didnt get any midas

Who is Mark?

I love those Dats!!

i missed a giant fish, didn't set the hook well enough...felt like a 10# bass or a big bowfin

mark is Josh's friend from Miami. He's not on the board.... unless we start a dating section.

awesome pics Chris,, we sure had a lot of fun,, almost got pulled over once,,

Chris, do u have the pics of me feeding my pink knifefish ??

those fishing pics are awesome guys!!! i gotta go on one of those trips with you guys..........those dats are huge!!!

do I! no, this is as well as the few came out. too little light and I couldn't hold the camera steady... your setups made me weak in the knees.

Looks like a blast.
nice catches

very very nice!

awesome pics

Great pics guys, sounds like a lot of fun. No tropical fish in Canada though, just some big ass salmon and trought. We sometimes catch 50lbs+ spring salmon, I can't even think about a tank to house one of those... Keep the pics coming!

VERY nice. I may have to make it down there for the next one.

Ah!! To be in my mid twenties and single again!!! Thanks for sharing guys!

AWESOME PICS!! I wish I lived closer. I would really like to go fishing myself there.

or you could catch a plane to florida like J and I did.

here are some more pics b/c it's a new page...

this we guessed was a little tilapia... but we're not sure. It came back in the cast-net with a bunch of port cichlids (josh has pics of the ports)


but... I have to go back to work. So, more tonight.

EDIT 032604, I have it from a reputable source that this is probably an aquidens species. There is a rather common type that it strongly resembles, but I have forgotten the species name and don't have the aqualog I used to look it up.

here's josh putting the gator gar in the tree. This was in the parking lot of outdoor world


josh giddy with jag catching fever


giganto wild mollies (or something) I thought I'd never get my net out of the mud with these guys.... then I went in after it and J thought he'd never get me out!


little live bearer from another location;

hahaha he's just wandering across the street in the middle of traffic with a rod and fish.
