OMG Spokey's fish takes the cake so far. The eggs flying out of its ass are definitely give it the winning edge.....:chef:

Looks more like zombie than boot though. That mold, yeesh. Those things go thru hell before they finally kick over..."Its the coming back, the return which gives meaning to the going forth.

RE:BOOT OF THE YEAR
Even better then catching boots is smelling rotting boots. 4 years ago I fished the upper Satsop after a real high water that flooded the Shafer Park campground. The smell of dead doggies was so bad it was hard to walk thru them getting to the river.I was gagging on that smell all day .
When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.

RE:BOOT OF THE YEAR
Good idea but maybe wait for a certain date to vote so people can get in some more of their uglies. Mine have been too pretty lately darn it:-"curado wrote:ok lets make this interesting lets have a poll made so that way we can have a prize give away for the uglyest boot of the year
If I had to vote right now, it'd be spokey's spawner shot (egg spew).Crankbait's 'nook is real old and pretty too. Clean but fully ripe.

RE:BOOT OF THE YEAR
I gotta go myself. Both spokeys and crank baits fish arent missing parts. Mine not only was missing part of its face replaced with a yellow mush. The eyes on both sides was buldging. Every fin had some moldy yuck on it. Its load was already spent the belly was mush. Its one of those fish you dont wanna touch without gloves. maybe I should bring gloves with me. A pic outta water would look alot worse. I just couldnt touch that thing. I mean really it was gross. It was also over 20lbs. That pic looked small but it was a beastly thing.
More fish please!
RE:BOOT OF THE YEAR
The end date should just be the end of 2010 coming up. Dec. 31st, that should be right around the time some REAL ZOMBIE chums are swimming around, lol! Then once we get past the end of the year we can go back through and make a vote for the nastiest one.

I'll second that. And I'm gonna start taking my camera out with me from now on. Get ready for some macro zombie pics boys.Matt wrote:The end date should just be the end of 2010 coming up.
