you guys have given me so much information I decided to create a photobucket account just to share some pics. We all love pictures. Here's what some Canadian smallies look like from Eagle Lake Ontario (and some small surrounding lakes). Can't believe the color difference between two BOW's even connected to one another. here goes:

This one a little later in the summer and from a lake that actually runs into Eagle. Most of the WE's are golden like this in this lake.

I despise catfish but the red river has some nice ones in it so when I get bored I go for em. Can anyone tell me what kind this is and if this is a decent size?

My older brother Beau with a nice 17" SMB. We had seen these here the day I caught my muskie this summer and came back and sight fished for these nice fat SMB. They were in <3' and inhaling leeches.
