    Forgot to post this nice fish from a while back. Got this skipping way back on docks this fish got me all sorts of tangled on the dock wrapped a ton and just I thought ...more it was a lost fish but I got on the dock after I made sure nobody's was home and he came off and I grabbed him, this fish was pushing the 4 lb mark (didn't have scale) but she was fat as can be! In around 4 fow under dock

    Had a little tournament with my friend pat. We went out to the main lake to start with basically nothing but small pike.. Came back to the canal to flip some docks ...more and produced like mad, hit the same series of docks at least 4 times. This was one of the last fish of the tourney, I got him beat in weight and he got me beat by one fish.. This one was 4 pounds 4 oz and caught under a dock in 4 fow

    Details: Northern Pike

    This one was 35" and probably 10 lbs I forgot the scale this time. This big girl smacked the spinnerbait and put up much more of a fight than the 34" did ...more earlier that day. This thing screamed drag under docks and into the weeds and what not. Great fish, love the way these big pike pull. She absolutely inhaled the bait and she had some narly teeth. In about 6 feet of water over submerged weeds

    Got bit off twice today, once on 50 lb braid and once on 12 lb fluoro, went back out throwing the spinnerbait and she ate it, didn't even smack it just sorta ...more inhaled it. Don't think this is the same culprit for my chatterbait and my rage craw being toothed. But this is a big girl none the less, 8 and a half pounds and 34" caught over submerged weeds over 6 FOW

    Details: Walleye

    This was one of the fish I caught on the night I caught my pb walleye on! That night I ended with 5 fish, I'm just posting them slowly so I don't destroy ...more somebody's feed with my fish lol but this guy was a healthy 19" hit and fought like a champ this was a nice little male. Good healthy fish caught in 4 feet of water on slow retrieve and water temps about 70
