Had off yesterday for elections. My dad and I went fishing up by Grove City. We haven't been fishing there in about 20 years, so it was kinda cool, seeing how different everything was. Got a decent rainbow:

Then, we came upon a scary looking cabin, looks like Jason Vorhees could live here:shocked: :eek: :help:

Then, came upon a BIG pile of bones, that's when I began cursing myself for all those scary movies I watched as a kid. :cry: Bones were too big to be a deer or rabbit. Got kinda freaked out, then I found this:

I think it's from a horse or a cow, not sure which? No more horror flicks for me!! :laugh:
 
there's party boats that go out fishing for the day around here...lots of fun. BYOB.

they do a thing towards september, before they head back down to florida, where they go out for a few days to the atlantic shelf? wherever it is that the continent drops off into the deep ocean. it's like $250 bucks...catch big fish like tuna and stuff. they give you those big ol' reels with the chairs like in jaws. i REALLY want to do that.
 
Skeery Scott.
Looks like you got a good catch though. :)

That trip sounds pretty cool Chris. Do it and if you have fun we can make a meet out of it the following year.

More info on the fish please!

Gear, water conditions, location (GPS coordinates) etc.:cool: I promise I won't tell anyone.

Nice Trout.
 
Hey Scott you found my new place!! Well at least now you know where I'm going to be living. Come back and visit, but please only come at night....when there's no moon out......and come alone..........oh sorry, that's not my new house. Mine has garage :laugh:

Bring some rope and duct tape too.
 
That jaw bone could be a wolf/cyote. I'd have to see it up close for sizing. I'd claim that cabin before billy bo joe comes back. Pee on it like cats do to claim their territory!:laugh:
 
It looks like it was going to be a pretty cool place to hang out, as it would have overlooked a nice little pond/resevior. Then they removed the dams downstream, so it now the cabin overlooks.....a puddle. :nonono: Bummer, in college we used to pull bass, HUGE carp, and Northerns out of that spot. WHat used to be a great spot is now barely a creek. :mad:
 
pm me if you're interested in going on a fly-in trip this year. we're looking for a couple more people to make the cost a LOT less. we went last year and caught more than we could ever dream

this wasnt even close to being the biggest pike of the trip

let me know if you catch one of these (that isn't me by the way...and yes that is a northern from what I can tell by the markings)

That is always cool to see. I just want to hit the river by my dads and sit in the canoe with my line in the water nearing sunset and watch the bass jump out of the water after bugs. That is some relaxing stuff right there.
