mike rousseau Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Well I'm around 900 walleye this year with several over 9lbs... But I had no 10 pounders... This was driving me bananas!!!!!!!! So I saw a chance to hit quinte today with my brother... Good idea... Lines were in around 730 am... Board fired around 800 am... Sweet... First fish on lead core.... Get the fish up to the transom... Pig... 10lb 8oz of quinte gold... After that it was a bit downhill... Snagged a perch... I dropped 2 fish... Brother dropped 1 fish... Then late afternoon we boated another eye around 4lbs... No matter how you look at it... It was a good trip... Time with my brother... 10lb walleye... And great weather in December... Anybody else hit quinte this weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike rousseau Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 That fish sure looked bigger than 10.5lbs. David aka Superdad Unless the scale was frozen/stiff... Took and hour to free up my frozen throttle assembly... Under the cowling... Luckily the motor was able to troll till it was sorted out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike rousseau Posted December 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Not sure how deep I was running... I don't have a trolling bible... But I saw the fish streak down to 30-40 after the release... So I think it was ok... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Awesome catch! The eyes on that fish are hilariously huge. Certainly makes me regret putting the boat away for the winter already with how mild it's been here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headhunter Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 There is a reason why most guys won't track lures below 30 ft... Outside of it's eye ball trying it's hardest to escape that fishes body, it looks like a nice clean Quitne eye... HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
