2008 Fish Spearing/Garbage removal contest entire year - Wisconsin

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
This is sick carnage. I wish I lived closer than 2 hours away from any lake that had a combination of vis AND carp. The only place there is carp around here is the river, and good luck with that...

This brings my ROUGHFISH TOTAL to 81:martial

dotey giving me a run for my money (whatever that means)

haha smallest fish- no entry... i like that for some reason, keep up the good work, i hope soon this summer i can join all of you1
 
I didn't know there was a "smallest fish" category. Seems funny, but in truth that is the most challenging... I insist that such efforts also result in fillets (and photos ).

Weight or length?

BTW, why isn't Dotey's shot at Whopper an entry in the "best shot" category?
 
dotey - didn't enter his shot of shooting at me- because he didn't have a picture

Smallest fish- does need pic with tape measure. I figured Nostres would have this category wrapped up.
 
This is Nostres and his Monster Trophy Perch from last year- If we would of had "Smallest Fish" last year- he would of won. Not sure how he even shot this. A Great shot I guess.

Lake Michigan is a mess right now- off of Milwaukee at least.

Yesterday's dive charters out to the wrecks saw a line of brown that went out a few miles- over 4. Once you get out to 70' of water the top is murky, but it clears once you get down past 40'.

With all of the added effluent that the city just dumped i think I'd wait a bit before I wasted any time driving there to go diving.

Wow. I dont know whats nastier. The fact that you dive in it, or the fact that Ive been WAITING to dive in it. rofl
 
Went to the OUTLET today and ended up shooting 2 more Carp. Could of shot a ton! But, Didn't have my truck there with me and wanted to get some Panfish. But Tomorrow is a different story. It's ON! Pain Train is coming! :crutch

I will post Pics of my Carp- later.

is it to late to join i dont go to much but i am trying to find places around me so that i can
 
There are alot of people that are just starting out, like 10 in central wiscinson just from forrest starting us all out, your wellcome to come along with any of us anytime, do you have any gear?
 
i have a wetsuit that is only 1/2 arm and leg, snorkle,jbl double banded spear gun, googles, fins but no scuba gear only free diving stuff
 
allhunter- Lake Michigan Sheboygan is awesome! Lots of fish- Never too late. If people where in the outlet yesterday they could of gotten hundreds of carp. Today the Algae bloom hit vis dropped way down. I had to dive to the bottom in about 12-20' fow and wait for the carp to swim by. I ended up shooting 20 more carp today bringing my total to 103!
