MuskieJunkie Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 KyleYou should play around using the timer on your camera, along with a place to set the camera in your house, and a place where you stand.I've done this in my boat while I'm trolling and have it all worked out where to put the camera and where to stand so that I can take a decent picture by myself. Unfortunetely I've never been able to take advantage of this knowledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dave2 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Did you catch this one on the same lake you caught the other big one a couple of winters ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I was rudely awakened at 3am by my WORK PAGER - I much prefer your situation over mine. LMITOUT - I'm a little curious: your rattle reels 'tinkle'? Doesn't that get a bit messy? Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hovermn Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Nice Walter! To think, I was rudely awakened by a bad caugh Where did you find ice thick enough to drive on? I'm planning on taking the house out next weekend because I just don't feel comfy yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishOn! Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 You are some genius. how do you know how big it is? read the forum policy...have you ever seen one of those hockey stick scoops? the fish is almost as long? good lord. let the guy post his awesome fish and feel good about it rather than letting your jealousy get in the way. dont sweat it kylersk. hes probably one of those guys that is 5'5" with size 7 shoes with a giant lifted pickup. you just wiggle your pinky at him and be proud of that dandy!

Kylersk Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 Primetime is right. It wasn't 29". I double checked my sticker tape measure that's in my house. The fish, from tail to head just hit the 29" mark. When I took a tape measure to it, 29" was actually 28 7/8". Sorry for the misiinformation. Also, the big dipper ice scoop has a 30" handle, just for referance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylersk Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 Big dave, yes same lake. This one was fatter than the last, the pictures are at a bad angle to see the girth. Anyways, this was my largest walleye I've caught. Some day I'll break than 30" mark and it'll end up on my wall, at least I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkydm Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Theres No way thats 29 inches lol! "29 inches" that would a be a record, the 1st 29 inch walleye under 2 pounds!!! You guys better smoke another one, if you think thats 29 inches!! Compare the fish against the catch cover! Catch covers are at least 12" and maybe a little more with the flange. That fish looks more than double that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordie Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 that fish is 29 inchs all day long I mean 28 7/8 close enough for me. great job on the release as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brade04 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Primetime- why would you doubt someones fish they caught in their own house? He was off by a bit. Especially for that bein your first post. That's kinda gutsy if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnUpTheFishing Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 count the hash marks on the ice scoop every two equals an inch that fish is atleast 28".Nice catch, how long did it take you to fall back to sleep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
