fishkid Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Got out ice fishing and finally got a decent laker. fish and game have netted them up to fifty pounds in that lake good thing i didnt hook into one of them because i was using my walleye sweetheart thornbrothers rod. from hook set to the finish it took me 30 minutes to reel this hawg in. measured out to be 34 inches around 16 to 20 pounds. wish i had a tape to measure the girth cause this thing was meaty and healthy. held it right next to my body for the picture also no pushing out no need to make it look bigger.
