Looks Good on Paper by Dan Collins for September 17, 2021

Very nice looking fish. Did you catch and release.

Nicely done!

You caught it. You clean it.

Do others find Dan’s story kinda’ ‘fishy?’

Sorry, I couldn’t help myself!

Again? Haven’t we seen this photo before? I notice that there’s no date on this toon.

Any day fishing is a good day. Congrats.

Well done, Dan! 4th place with muskies is a heck of an accomplishment.

Is that goose island behind you?

So talented, looks just like a photo!

We call them freshwater barracudas.

I’ve never been fishing for Muskies, but as a kid I was paddling an inner tube on the river when one bigger than I was lept from the water less than six feet (2 m) away.

Remembering that they supposedly like to grab swimming ducks by the feet and drag them down, I was almost airborne getting back to shore.

“The worst day fishing is stll better than the best day at work…”

I’m just glad to see you’re not another starving artist. Not today anyway.

What!! Again!!

Those things must be kin’ to the alligator gars down south.

My hometown.

Nice job Dan. I’ve never fished for Muskie at West Branch but have enjoyed some great bass fishing there.
