Did Dirt Sell His Soul To The Devil?

[Driftless]

Below is a recent email I received from Mark Dahlquist:

"Sick. How big? Did Dirt sell his soul to the Devil?"

.....................................

Mark Dahlquist is the best small stream big trout slayer from Minnesota that I know.

Mark made this comment about Joe *dirt* Chadwick and his recent big brookie .

Check back to this thread later for verification of sale of one said "SOUL."

I'm confused

A new trout photo coming soon.

About a week ago my mail carrier Jim Gainor gave me a tip on a big trout he had follow right here in Richland Center. I stored it in my memory for another day. That another day was this morning at first light.

I was accompanied by Joe Chadwick. He was tossing worms while I was spinning the area. It was a short outing.

Joe was yelling for me to come help within 2 minutes of getting to the Pine River right in town. I waded out quit a ways and waiting for Joe to tire the fish out. This fish was big and hunkered down to the bottom. It finally surfaced and then I got exited. I waded out further because this trout was absolutely huge.

The battle went on for what seemed forever. A couple walking by on the bridge stopped and I could hear them yelling and cheering. This only made Joe and I more nervous.

Finally the trout tired out and I netted it. The couple on the bridge applauded us and came down to admire the female brown.

She measured 31 5/8s inches. This makes 4 small stream trout over 30 inches that Joe has caught in his life. I get an assist again.

Cool! Sounds like a nice one. He should be on worm pro-staff.

WOW! 3rd party STORY telling.....my favorite! I bet if I hop over to a half dozen other forums I can reread it over and over.....

I guess if sitting on the edge of a bridge, where a guy hand fed trout for close to a decade- dunking worms for trout that will come eat out of your hand is a challenge for catching big trout- then yes- the soul has been sold..

what's next? Joe Dirt's superb hunt in the petting zoo?

There is an awful lot of disgusting stuff shows up in this Forum every now and then. Too bad; the trout is such a classy and noble game fish.

Prison tats and dead fish. That's always a crowd-pleaser.

Did you ask "Dirt" how that trout tasted? I also really hope he didn't sell his soul for a 5 pound pike......
