We hit the Betsie River for the annual Cassidy Salmon trip on Sept 18-21.

Eric Huston is pictured casting for the monsters.

Nick's Geo. trout buddy, Clayton Santiago made the trip to Michigan to fish with Nick.

One of Clayton's first salmon. Clayton is an avid stream trout fisherman.

Nick's 23 lb. King Salmon. Its his largest salmon to-date.

Nick is working a gravel bed. Below is a video of Nick hooking and fighting a fish seconds after this picture was taken.

A Betsie River salmon. The river was loaded with fish - but they were not aggresively pursuing our flies.

Nick & Clayton did Georgia proud. Each hooked and landed numerous fish over the weekend.

The Cassidy Crew. Tammy, Terry, Terry Bret & Nick. Hey, the family the fishes together stays together!

Even the old guy caught a few.

This is a 23 lb fish.

Dave & Dan Johnson hit the bay on 9/23. The largest perch of the day was a 13" yellowbelly.

Sam and friends fished salmon on the weekend of 9/26.

L-R: Richville guys Marty Hall, Scott Johnson & Sam.

This pose is becoming a Silver Bullet trademark.

Scott and a King. Sort of surprised that there was not one picture of a Busch Light can with all of these Richville guys.

Opps, I spoke too soon! OK, Nick, its time for the Darwin impersonation.

Nick, Brian and Jeff traveled to Lake Erie on Nov. 3 and caught some huge walleyes.

Brian, you are creating Silver Bullet envy with those large 'eyes.

Brian fishes with Lance Valentine and the Walleye 101 crew.

Josh shot two bucks on opening day this year.....within 10 seconds of each other.

Josh and the boys pose with a few future meals.

On Thanksgiving weekend Nick & AJ traveled to Tennessee looking for trout. Big Trout! A 22" brown.

Nick fished the South Holston River in the mornings.

Nick & AJ rented this cabin from a couple. AJ fixed a turkey Thanksgiving dinner with all of the trimmings.

This was the big one. A 29 inch brown taken with an egg pattern. Nick fished shallow runs in this river.

Another monster. This fish was 25 inches long. See the Fishing Reports for the story.

Nick and Terry fished a local lake over the holidays. One day Nick landed this 25" northern on a tip-up.

On the following day he caught this 31" northern using the Automatic Fisherman.

On November 17, Mike and I were invited to the Licavoli Lodge. Picture R-L: Vince, Mike, Sam and Chris.

We thought better of wading on this cold day.

Steve shot this doe on 12/26 at 8:00 am. in his woods. Some Christmas venison.
