[cool][#0000ff]I just took a look at the cover of the new Cabelas Master Fishing catalog for 2009. I just about choked when I looked at the "walleye snake" being held by the guy on the front cover. Looks like what Utah Lake walleyes were looking during the last year of the big drought a few years ago. You could just about read a newspaper through them.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I got to thinking that Cabelas really should have been able to get a better picture of a walleye than that one. If they want anglers to buy gear to catch those fish, they should show a big fat healthy one. Nobody wants to catch "hammer handles"...long bodies and big heads.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Then again, maybe its mama was messin' around with a sneaky northern pike.[/#0000ff]
