jrego7 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Got off work early on friday. Decided to go fishing. So I went out and spent some time catching a dozen minnows. Headed out to the Grand. Within a few seconds I was getting hits like crazy and also getting robbed. So I switched it up to a larger hook and Bamn started hooking into some fish. Landed a 2 lb walleye and a few smallies. One at about 1.5 lbs. I saved 2 minnows for a spot. Within minutes I get slammed in the rapid's, I'm like omg! What a BEAST! Within 20 seconds the fish was sucked dry of energy lol. It weighed 6.5 lbs and measured in at 26 1/4 inches. http://img403.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img1118bd8.jpg http://img122.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img1117cz1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogu392 Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) Talking about big walleye the below one is my catch in Bay Of Quinte on 12 May 2008. 4+ Kg - 9lb. I think is impresive mainly because I don't own a boat, not even a kayak, neither fancy fishing tools (fish finder, electric motor a.s.o.) Will take me sone years to get those but I will catch up some day. Edited October 19, 2008 by Gogu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
