lol...we went back and found his little brother...it was so mad when he got him to the boat,it dove under and broke his rod is 3 places!!! we did land
him even with a 3 foot stub left of his rod!!...NOBODY fishes for northerns in this lake , as its known for panfish, bass etc, we went in and soaked huge sucker minnows. We still not hooked the "bigun", other than having him try to eat a bluegill we were pulling in.
