The last month ago, I was fishing at a Put&Take lake, nearly 30km from my home.
I caught 13, 17 and 19 rainbow trout by three different fishing days.
At the end of last month two fishing friends and I spent a weekend in north-Germany
near Flensburg. We went fishing by boat in the Eastsea and caught a lot of flatfish. 41 were big enough for the kitchen.
The next day, we went to Danmark Put&Take Trout lake. While there I caught my first big rainbow trout with my own made Montana fly with #4 Hardy fly rod.
The Trout was nearly 2kg and I was proud to catch them with the light Flyrod.
With best wishes from old Germany.

 I was the guy that caught the muskie last saturday (02-20-2010). That was a great tournament and I think you guys did a great thing with the kids, we can't do enough to get them involved in the sport we love so much and you guys went above and beyond the call of duty with the prizes and making it fun for everyone.
I'm an avid fisherman and I'm on the water rain or shine at least 3 days a week and I'm looking forward to checking out your website to see what you have. I mainly fish for walleye in the river and Lake Eerie and panfish in the winter and between my website partners (fishing buddies) and I we spend a lot of money on tackle. Check out our website when you get a chance and see what were about.
If you want to use my picture for your packaging I would be honored and maybe you could send me a handful of stickers for us to put on our boats to help you out a bit.
Our website is hothuntingspots.com and my nickname is the 3" Magnum you will see my report and others on the fishing reports link. I haven't had a chance to make my weekend report yet but hopefully tonight I will. I look forward to hearing from you.

"I caught this walleye on Aug.
29th 2008 in the Flint River near Flushing Twp. It
measured in at 17" and weighed close to 3lbs. I
used a 3", single #2 hook walleye rig I made myself
using nothing more than 15lb. test line, red and
green translucent beads and 2 swivel spoons. The
water was about 4' deep and I set the hook about 10' off
shore."

"I have personally fished and wrote about the Michigan Walleye Tour since the very first event in 1996 and now fish the In-Fisherman Professional Walleye Trail. More MWT events (including the 2000 Michigan Walleye Tour Championship), have been won with Catchmore baits and Grapentin products than any other company. Many of the successful anglers that are using Grapentin products are now fishing the In-Fisherman Professional Walleye Trail. If you're a recreational angler or an up and coming
pro, Grapentin products will help you put more fish in the liverwell day after day."
