mike rousseau Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 Well the girlfriend got off early today... So I got to go fishing tonight... Well me and a buddy fished for about an hour before we marked our first fish.. Wich refused our offerings... And so did the next 5 marks... We tried everything... Again... I decided to use my go to lure... And work on the cadence... Finally get I bite... Swing and a miss... Got my minnow... Rebaited and dropped... Bang got him that time... A nice 18-20 incher... Soon after my partner got SMOKED on his lindy darter... I guess they do work...lol I get cracked again... Feels huge... I'd gain 3-4 feet and she would take it right back... Work her up 20 feet and POP... Hook pulled.... I was devastated.... As I rebait I watched the beast swim back down... I dropped my bait back down... And before the fish made it to the bottom it saw my lure again... That's right... It hit again!!!!! After I just lost it seconds before... This time I got it up to the hole... OMG... Beast... I wasn't sure if it would fit through the 6 inch hole... We got her through the hole barely... She went 31x18 wich is 12lbs on the calculator... My new PB We later iced 2 more 18-20 inchers... What a great night
mercman Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 What a freakin beast man !!!!! Nice going She looks like she's been eating well. Congrats on the PB

Nipfisher Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 That is a hog. I caught 8 today and one of them was less than 4" long. New PW walleye for me but was really cute.
Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 Wow, great catch! Are you going to start drilling bigger holes now? Might need to lol.
