Species: Walleye (Sander vitreus)
Location: American Fork Marina, Utah Lake, Provo, UT
Date: June 22, 2017

When doing my research about Utah Lake, I’d read that it contained Walleye, but I’d always heard that the coolwater species like to stay deep and rarely fed during daylight — especially in the dog days of summer.

So when my worm was taken, I assumed it was a small White Bass.

Nothing could’ve pleased me more than the long, perch-like fish on the end of my line. My Walleye was neither big nor pretty as this fish can be, and stretched the tape to just 16 inches.

I knew they had teeth, so I was careful as I handled the fish, but I quickly realized a fish this size was harmless, so I was able to lip it for a quick photo before letting it swim free.

It wasn’t big, but it was a new species. Just don’t tell my friends in the Great White North that this is my one and only Walleye at the time of writing.

Some of my blog posts are like Oompa Loompas: short and lame. This is one of them. I just hope that “you will live in happiness too. Like the Oompa Loompa, doompety do.”

For the record, the original Willy Wonka was better than the remake, and it was a great film, despite the Oompa Loompas.

  11. Obstawiam tu od dobrych paru miesiecy, wiec juz chyba wypada cos napisac. Znalazlem to przypadkiem, jako ze mialem dosc weryfikacji ciagnacej sie w nieskonczonosc gdzie indziej. To co FieryPlay ma w lobby wyglada solidnie — w okolicach 2800 gier, glownie Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, NetEnt z dorzuconym Yggdrasil i paroma rzeczami od Big Time Gaming.

    Ja osobiscie najwiecej klikam Book of Dead, no i klasyczne Gates of Olympus, nic odkrywczego. Dobrze ze mozna odpalic demo bez zakladania konta, polatalem po nowosciach zanim zaczalem grac na realne. Wyszukiwarka za to jest przecietne — brakuje mi filtra po zmiennosci.

    Zywe stoly oparte na Evolution i to czuc. Ruletka, blackjack, i oczywiscie game shows typu Crazy Time — siedze tam czasem godzine zamiast dziesieciu minut. Krupierzy realni, glownie po angielsku, na polski stol nie trafilem — komus moze to przeszkadzac.

    Bonus powitalny u nich w FieryPlay to byl u mnie 100% do 2000 zl plus 100 FS, nie wszystkie od razu, po czesci. Warunek obrotu to x35 — da sie przerobic, choc trzeba pilnowac. Zdarzaly sie jakies spiny bez depozytu za weryfikacje numeru, ale to raczej okazjonalnie. Regulamin przeczytaj zanim klikniesz — promocje rotuja dosc szybko, biezace promo znajdziesz na [url=https://swizzpools.com/]fieryplay casino[/url] zanim zalozysz konto.

    Zakladanie konta to jakies dwie minuty, minimalna wplata 20 zl. Place karta, obok tego dzialaja Skrill, Neteller i krypto. Kasa wychodzi na Skrilla przyszly mi tego samego dnia, na karte czekalem trzy dni robocze. KYC za pierwszym razem — dowod plus rachunek, nic strasznego.

    Mobilnie lece przez przegladarke, nie ma appki, strona radzi sobie dobrze. Czat z supportem FieryPlay odpisuje po polsku w kilka minut, raz musialem powtorzyc pytanie dwa razy. Dzialaja na licencji Curacao — nie jest to najmocniejszy papier na rynku. Limity depozytu da sie ustawic w ustawieniach konta.

    I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your website, but suppose you added something that grabbed
    people’s attention? I mean Species #88 — Walleye – CaughtOvgard is kinda boring.
    You could look at Yahoo’s front page and see how they create news headlines to grab
    viewers to open the links. You might try adding a video or a picture
    or two to get readers interested about what you’ve got to say.

    Just my opinion, it would make your blog a little bit more interesting.

  146. I got this site from my pal who informed me about this
    site and now this time I am visiting this website and reading
    very informative content at this place.

  147. The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop,
    just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she
    has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to
    share it with someone!

  148. What’s up mates, how is everything, and what you would like to say about this piece of writing,
    in my view its actually amazing in favor of me.

  149. 본인의 신용카드와 스마트폰만 소지하고 있다면 까다로운 신용 확인 절차 없이 즉각 입금이 완료되는 카드깡은 금융 취약 계층의 일시적인 자금 경색을 뚫어 주는 단비 같은 구원 도구입니다

  150. Pretty nice post. I just stumbled upon your weblog and wished to say that I’ve really enjoyed browsing your blog posts.
    In any case I will be subscribing to your rss feed and I hope you write again soon!
