Walleye

Trophy to start the season off

Another absolute stud of a walleye tonight! The dream of a 10 pounder keeps me up every night and I won’t miss an evening on the river until it happens. Today’s catches weighed in at 8lbs and 2.5lbs, and I even brought the fly rod out for a bit to land some little Atlantics and fallfish.

New PB! Once again, I came so close to completing my goal of catching a 10 pounder with this new personal best Walleye. This behemoth of a fish weighed in at 9.1lbs! Tonight, I found myself fishing a wall that I knew would be hard to land a fish without a net. I ended up lying flat on my stomach numerous times to just barely grab this fish by the tail and bring it in. I even managed to land another stud that came in at 6lbs 4oz, yet the beast that bit before it put it to shame. I had lost my first two fish of the day on back to back casts, and the pouring rain, combined with temps that touched the high 30’s, didn’t help build my confidence. Thankfully, I stuck it out, and it all payed off.
