I thought I hooked a horse when trolling for walleyes on Saturday. using 6 lbs test line and med action pole I thought one or other was going to snap when landing these beasts. :shock:
First one I did not measure just wanted to get back in water so would survive. I put it in livewell while getting camera out. it laid in well and tail folded up and stuck out above deck aways. After threw back measured on how far it was longer then storage hatch in boat, estimating around 43".
I was catching some eyes in area so kept working there and landed 2 more measured them at 33". Released both those to battle another day too.
Man do those things have some teeth!! I did not get picture of bigger ones teeth but did take pictures of one of the 33'ers.
I did manage to limit (4) on 17"-19" eyes and catching and releasing couple 23"ers.
