Fish Spearing/Garbage Removal Contest 2007 (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.
You got me all excited and tingly when I read 'Huge Bluegills" and "Huge Perch"!

This coming Spring we'll have to hit that spot...If it's early enough they should STILL be there...Me likey Perch! Mmmmm!

That is if I don't pull 'em up through little holes in the ice!!! :t

Can you point me in the right direction...Or come with during Ice fishing season?

Thanks!

Scott - You alone could rid a lake of those vermin carp!!!! You go!!!!

Great job Scott!

I hope the wind dies down to improve the vis by 11/3...

I should have made a rule that you could only go to Green Lake if I was with you...lol!

Now I really have to bust my buns to catch you before 1/1/08! :martial

What are you doing on your computer? Get out there and spear some fish, make this a race! (I think scott is cheating, but can't prove it).
 
Your right - I bait them with Little Debbie Ho-Ho's - they love em!

Gene- Wait till I go to the outlet next- Armageddon!

The only bad thing about the outlet, that I discovered last time. If I shoot too many carp- and I'm by myself- it's really hard to get my tote up that hill!!!!!!!!!!!! Last time I shot carp in there I ended up with 110# of carp- which isn't too bad- but going up a hill with wet feet - sucks!
 
Next thing ya know, we will see an electric winch installed at the top of the hill. A label will read "one of Scott's latest toys". rofl

Hey, it's okay, as long as we get some carp out of here...not that we are making even a dent in the population, but hey, it feels good doing this service. Not to mention it is a whole lot of fun!

Add 4 more to my count- Good thing I didn't have the speargun half the time- who knows what would of happened. I don't have a pic with me and the carp- but I have 2 witnesses.

This brings my total to 49 carp, 8 suckers , 3 Gizzard Shad, 1 gar, 1 DOGFISH, and a Freshwater Drum for a total of 63 ROUGH FISH :martial
 
I'm assuming you mean 07? I'm working and going out on the 1st-SO, I'll leave tomorrow alone- The Fish shall live to see a NEW YEAR (about a day)
 
(In Queen singing voice):

"Scott is the Champion. Scott is the Champion. No time for losers, cause Scott is the Champion...of the Wisconsin 2007 rough fish spearfishing competition!"

Awesome job Scott.

You have won a custom made attachement arm for your underwater camera...to attach your camera to your spear gun.

Draw something up, & get it to me...I'll make it out of aluminum on my milling machine.

On to 2008!

Gene
 
Thank You! Thank You! It was a great adventure! To give you all a chance for the 2008 TITLE - I am not shooting ANY fish in the 2008 Season.

NOT!


I'm just kidding! I am just wondering if i should double my numbers this season or not.

My total of 49 carp, 8 suckers , 3 Gizzard Shad, 1 gar, 1 DOGFISH, and a Freshwater Drum for a total of 63 ROUGH FISH for 2007. :martial

Not sure if I will shoot another Gar unless it's a Record size Gar- But CARP, Suckers, Dogfish (bowfin) - SWIM! Swim for your lives. For I will show you NO MERCY! I'm getting a Smoker and you'll be smoked!

Gene - Get a Sticky going for the "2008 Rough Fish & Garbage Contest" - For I see in my near future carp- and lots of them.

I am really wanting one of us to get a RECORD size Rough Fish this year. I'm thinking we can do it- We have a better chance than those shooting them with bow and arrow.

Hope we all have a Great and Safe 2008 Year

-THE CARP SLAYER

Congratulations Scott. Did you weigh any in 2007? What was your biggest fish?
~Brian
 
My biggest carp was 29lbs 4oz- I think the one at Lake Michigan was bigger- but I don't think the scale was zero'd- it only read 24lbs- I know it was more than that. So, I say 29lbs is my biggest.
