no problemo'...had to use the url link on the youtube vid with the media tag(that 5th button down from the smiley on the top of the post/reply box) vs using the normal embedded tag with it...

Thought I'd add one to the pile. Monday on Mille Lacs. I thought, at least for a moment, I might be close to a new state record! Didn't have a scale in the boat. Oh well. 22 inches and 18 1/2 girth. Snapped a few pictures and released her...

Very nice fish! What did it weigh? Can I ask what depth it came out of?

[bsherck]

Unfortunately I didn't have a scale along, nor did anyone at the ramp. Based on those measurements, the equations would say about 6 1/2 lbs. We were fishing 11 feet on the edge of a reef. Catching both smallies and walleyes.

[Cecil]

Getting a replica?

[bsherck]

I figure I snapped a few photos and that'll be good enough...If she was closer to the record I would.

Bet that was a battle!

[LEECH21]

Nice smallie! Wish I could find one like that!

[Fever]

Heres a 20 incher that spanked a jig in 16 fow of a mid lake hump and an 18.5 that hit a buzz bait.

Bill, I was out with Travis last night and he told me all about that fish. Then this morning I see the pictures. Everything I imagined it to be. Awesome fish.

I've been a longtime cruiser on the site, but never really posted. I figured it was about time I say hello! The site is sure a great resource! Tom, how did you guys do? Travis is one of the best young fishermen in Minnesota and a heck of guy to learn from! I wish I had half his knowledge when I was his age!

[nate larson]

Congrats bsherck! That is an amazing fish. Did it put up a good fight?

[bsherck]

Every once in awhile you hook into a fish you know is different. Heck, I don't catch a lot of monsters, but got lucky on this day. You know how a fish will "sorta" pull some drag? That smallie ripped my drag repeatedly. It was also fun wrestling her when she ran up towards the anchor rope. Fighting wind, waves and a big fish. Nothing like it!

[Cecil]

Would of been good on tv!

[polarsusd81]

We had several follows and a few fish hit, but missed the hooks. I had one launch my bait about 3 feet out of the water. Just t-boned it from underneath with a closed mouth. Watched the head of the fish come out of the water, pretty cool. I had one giant hit and immediately dove into the thickest weeds it could find and shook off. Travis and Matt each caught a couple bass on the muskie baits and Matt got two snakes out there too.

It is unreal how much knowledge he has. I've known him since he was 12 or 13 and even then he knew how to put fish in the boat. Great teacher on the water too, good career choice I'd have to say.

Nice largmouth fever! I love that second lake... personally one of my favorite lakes to fish.

[jerkin'm]

One just under 21" from Monday..

[Basseyes]

Great fish.

Pretty cool life jacket. Wonder if they make one of those in a large? Did the kid catch it on that rod and reel? If so that's awesome. Nothing funner than watching my kids fishing poles bend all the way to the water and see the look on their faces.
