did you ever fish 18 mile above burt dam.  i always wondered what was up above.  looks good but i never fished there and never could find anyone that fish above the dam.

I never did or knew anyone that fished it..... looks great for Bass or Pike. 

How about a few present photos...........I haven't been around here in years...lots of good old past memories here !

 
The old marina

Wow.....what a difference 20 years makes





Trout Run in it's prime days..........70's ,80's , 90's



The Pig Pen... aka....Marina

Me & Kevin at Trout Run early 80's Coho Salmon only in those days....ck. out all the boats!

Those old rubber boots sucked ! But at least some of us had boots ! LOL....Coho Fever at Trout Run 80's

Beautiful shots as usual Trout Guy nice species mix too ! # 5 got me wondering.....little Tiger or Pike  ? 

Thanks. Actually that little fish is a grass pickerel! Honestly, it was probably my most rewarding catch of 2015. Tried a bunch of times at various locations to scratch grass picks off my life list and failed but finally made it happen over the summer. Was more excited than when catching a big "game fish." May be silly, but that's the fish nerd/biologist in me haha

I almost said Pickerel but the chain sides were not as distinct . Great catch !  I've got a list of never caught fish too and Pickerel are on it. Bowfin , Gar , Tiger Trout , Sauger, I'm sure the list is longer. One strange one I did catch on a rod by accident locally was a Golden Shiner. It was as brassy gold as I've ever seen, never seen or caught another one in our area. That sounds like a new thread ! Strange , rare , or different looking fresh water fish caught in our areas . 

PB in length 28.5'' this fish weighed just under 9lbs , 1-31-2016
 

Nice Walleye.............that's a trophy around here !
