Sorry Dave my message was AFU. But you figured it out on spite of me. Well Done , dude.
Thank you man. Your advice made a big difference. When I read it I figured out what you meant. I was wondering what that button was for but didn't want to mess up a post trying to find out. Lol.

My son-in-law and I had a great day on the ice today. Same lake as last time, same spot. Couldn't catch a pike for nothin. BUT...I DID catch a bluegill over 11" long with a huge girth along with several 8 and 9 inchers. 20 keepers and about as many smaller ones. My son-in-law caught several bass around 18" as well. I can't explain why we didn't get pics of the bass. Lol.
That is one monster gill and a bunch of good eating.

Will do! Lol. Pretty sure I just got lucky. It looks like they stopped the master angler program. The only way to apply was online and they took the page down on January 10.
Dave I was able to find the page for master angler award. . Application comes up when I ‘clicked’ on it.
I couldn’t copy and paste link, but sent you a screen shot of link.

I tried that address but it wasn't working so I did a search and found another that took me to the new page for applying. Thanks for the info. I planned on contacting them today about it but you just saved me some effort! The certificate has been applied for.

I feel your disappointment Dave, to be so close, what a bummer. The registration completes the experience and it is lasting for generations. The universe has a way of correcting, stay ready for your turn bro. Tight Lines!

Dave...although it has been stated already...you scooped up a DANDY batch of bluegills there. Just for grins, I snapped the attached photo in my local supermarket a few days ago with respect to the "financial" value of bluegill.
Notice on the package label that the vacuum sealed bag contains farm raised 'gills from China. I would much rather dine on fresh caught fish from a quality water resource like you did! Well done!

"No thank you" on farm raised bluegills from China. Give me fresh caught fish from the wild any day!

WOW! I saw gills @ $150 for 5.5 lbs online. Farm raised fish spend a lot of their raising feeding on pellets. Doesn't have the same taste that sweet nature brings.
