I have another question and this is coming from a numbers guy - me.  Who on here counts the fish they catch?  People always ask me how many I caught?  I can give them an estimate, but I don't count x over24", y over 28".  It wouldn't be that hard to count the big ones, as I don't catch that many big ones, but I wouldn't know if I caught 17 or 23?  It seems like they must have a tally going when they fish?

Sorry to inject this into this thread, but I skimmed my new BWJ article about this trip.  They did catch some serious walleyes.
