harvey lee Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 You got it. I still think about that gator and wonder how big it really was. I never said a word to Jerry as he felt kinda bad. Oh well, just means I have to go fishing again and hope another biggun hits. Sooner or later I will land a monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Hudson Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 48" fish out of a marina here locally on Lake Superior.. This was about 15 years ago now.. We routinely would catch fish 40 inches or bigger and up to 45" in a season when I was in middle school and highschool. Now, we are lucky to catch 30 inch fish in the entire system throughout a season... Shows what harvest can do, to even a huge body of water..

Cooter Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I caught a 44.5" many years ago from a little lake close to home that grew them big for a couple years on stocked rainbow trout. Nice, thick fish...gonna guess close to 25lbs. The same lake produced a 43" fish that weighed 28lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrappieFshr651 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 My biggest is a 34incher out of medicine lake. I have caught 3 that were also the same size out of the mississippi. Lost a northern that had to be pushing 20lbs in the boundary waters a few years back, that was a huge bummer, snapped my 15lb mono like nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikepike Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 My biggest was a paltry 31" while canoing on Annie Battle lake. I was using a medium sized Husky jerk-bait. I don't have a boat so I don't get out on big waters very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no_bod Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 My biggest pike came from a lake in Ottertail County. I was Texas-rigging a Yamamoto Senko for largemouth in the fall. The fish inhaled it like a bass, but didn't fight like one 15 minutes later, I had myself a beautiful 41" pike in the net. The most memorable thing about the catch, was the release. She swam away as if nothing had happened. Unforgettable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
