Though these requests are generally ignored, and though I don't generally spend the time posting photos, here's a couple I'll share.

Posting photos is a time-consuming hassle I can't seem to keep up with during the musky season. I'm fishing a lot and have a hard time just keeping up with e-mail and posting basic fishing updates I don't have internet access at the cabin on Mille Lacs and I don't make it home very often. When I do make it home for some much-needed family time, Mrs. Schlagel isn't too happy if I spend some of that precious time screwing around with my message board. I don't care for fishing business either when I'm home. She doesn't care much either with fishing phone calls or anything fishing-related. While at the cabin I have to go to Isle to get on a computer, which is a pain in the butt. So I barely keep up with e-mail, much less screwing around posting photos. Taking them off the camera, compressing them using Picnik.com, and posting is time-consuming and I suck at it and i'm slow.

I'm rambling. The point is, don't always expect photos when requested. I e-mail them to the client as soon as possible and encourage them to post the photos if they'd like. They rarely do, however, which tells me it's a pain in the butt for them too, or they really don't care that much. Probably both.

I'll put together a big photo album at the end of the season. I'll also add a bunch of the photos to my Muskylink page: http://www.muskylink.com/profile/PaulSchlagel
