Heavy On Wrestling, Superior Wisconsin

I finally made it to a Heavy On Wrestling show in Superior, Wisconsin! This was their THIRD ever show, featuring Terry Funk, Eugene, Lacey Von Erich, Honky Tonk Man and more! The main event was a triple threat LADDER MATCH that a wrestler named Ben Sailer won to face Arik Cannon for the Heavy On Wrestling Championship at a later date.

Check out my photos from the event!

View Through My Lens Galleries

As I start to build my new Website I will post links to galleries I put up. Right now the following galleries are up:

Canadian Snowbirds in Duluth

Clouds. I enjoy cloud pictures because like snowflakes, none are ever alike and you never know what you'll see when you upload your photos.

Fishing and Fish. I love fishing, and this will probably grow to be the largest section over time.

I'm always taking pictures and bringing my camera along so you never know what might be the next photograph.

New Website UP!

I've created a partner website for my View Through My Lens blog... at http://www.viewthroughmylens.net. Someone grabbed up the .com 'viewthroughmylens' so I am stuck with the .net for now :) That's OK though, I needed a place to put photos and galleries and host for this blog. The website name was registered today and I haven't done any 'work' on it yet but I had to announce it.

The 10 Minute Fishing Trip

I was coming home from Wal-Mart and wanted to check out how an area of the St. Louis River that's been clogged with brush and trees turned out after the rains last week. I figured I couldn't even cast into the area before I got there because everything was pushed up against a culvert since winter.



There was just enough opening to see if maybe a Smallmouth might be hiding under the brush so I decided to cast...

Nope, no Smallmouth Bass were biting...But....



THIS guy was.. I only had about 10 feet of distance to cast to..and this Northern Pike hit as soon as the Rapala X-Rap hit the water, it came out of the water to get it.

This Pike trumps the May 24th Pike easily weighing twice what that one did for pretty much the same length in the 30+ inch range.

That was a huge improvement over 4 hours of shore fishing Saturday without catching anything because of all the recent rain.

No Fish, But A Doe

With the huge amount of rain we had, four PLUS inches... fishing was miserable today, the river was moving which is usually ok, but there was a huge amount of silt and sand that made the river really dirty.

While fishing I heard some noises behind me off in the woods. I turned around and this was behind me.





I was probably 300 feet from the doe and it turned and looked at me as seen in the picture but it never ran, it just kept on it's way, stopping to look around, eat, and keep going. While I didn't catch any fish, this was cool anyway :)

The following is more or less a random cloud picture I took yesterday in between some light rain showers.
