Well I finally got around to finding some old pics and many some are still my PB so here they are. The one below is my personal best Brown Trout which was caught at the former Four Sisters in Port Credit. Those who know me personally will see I also looked good 12-15 yrs ago

My personal best Chinook, caught in the Credit River. The girth was amazing and as you can see the fish is almost the same width as me. The fish was held to the side and not out towards the camera. It was 37.5 lbs and if I remember correctly it would have won the derby that year. Caught with a marshmallow off the bottom. Fight was almost 45 mins and had to turn him from running through the bridge several times. I had only 12 lb leader and really have to applaud the etiquette of the river fisher's back then as they removed their lines and allowed me to fight this fish. The fisherman of today could take a lesson.

OK Craig, I wont make any wise cracks about the hair.
You sure did have some good fishing skills back then. What happened??
Wel John. I would call it a wife and two kids. As you noticed, I used to have the time to hone the skills now It's now a fight each day to make the time to maintain the skills. Oh yah, back then I could see to tie on a leader without pulling out the goggles.
