My mean ole husband made me go fishing today, saying we needed white bass for bait.
After catching a few White Bass, something larger than normal grabbed my hook, and headed for the other side of the lake.
After stripping my line for a couple of times, I hollered for help, and get the net.
I was casting and retrieving a 1/16th oz. jig, and at first I thought I had a catfish on. Richard said you have a walleye!!
Once we got it in the net, we found out we were both wrong.
I didn't know what kind of fish it was, and Richard told me it is a Northern Pike. 24inches long. It put up quite a fight.
We did what good conservationists do and gave it the ax.
