FreeFlySpy Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 I was fishing in Crandon WI with a friend of mine and his kids. We had about 12 tip ups out and it started to snow with winds at about 20mph. When we picked up at dark several of the flags were up with nothing on. We got to the last tip up and the flag was up. I offered to my buddy to take the line and he said no because his hands were cold and wet. I asked him again and he said no go ahead. I pulled a 12 lbs walleye out of that hole. I love to tell that story when he is around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
can it be luck? Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Freefly, there's many lakes in Crandon, but is the lake you're talking about named after a tree? I know of one close to Crandon that gives up some HUGE eyes early ice.Most memorable for me at this time.....A 32 1/2", 13.8# walleye I just happened to catch tonight!! She's a beauty, and she's going to be added to the "Walla Walleye". Caught a 25"er and several smaller 15-22"ers.Spring fishing...You gotta love it!Pictures will be comeing as soon as I get them developed. ------------------http://groups.msn.com/canitbeluck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reefdawg75 Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Last Spring a group of us fished Basswood one afternoon and caught and released a dozen Pike over 10 pounds. They were 2 10#, 2 11#, 1 13#, 2 15#, 1 16#, 2 17#, 1 19#, and my biggest one to date the 46 1/2 inch 22# 11 oz monster. I can't wait until the replica is ready. That was just one of those days.Reefdawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psegriz Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 The walleye that chased a minnow right up and outta my hole.NOPEThe northern that scarred the back of my hand trying to steal a sunny out of it.NOPEThe 25# carp I snagged by the tail on 2# line while crappie fishing.NOPEThe time I caught 2 small snakes on a daredevil at same time.NOPEThe muskie that broke my brand new muskie pole but still managed to land. NOPEThe northern that jumped right into boat and landed on my feet.NOPEBeing an honest fisherman I'd say "It's the one that got away". Must've been a walleye maybe 55-60 inches. YEP that'd be the one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Amish Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 a few years ago me and a buddy were trolling for walleyes when he thought he had hooked into the biggest walleye on the planet...he was cussing and swearing on how it wouldn't come up off the bottom, out of the corner of my eye i noticed that our bouy was bouncing up and down... i burst out laughing and let him know that his world record walleye was the bouy....... i will never let him forget that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
