Got my personal best eye!
« on: Dec 24, 2013, 10:58 AM »
Still not considered a trophy but I'm "inching" my way towards one.  Got a 26" on a tip up Saturday night on Fox Lake, in WI.  Had 4 flags - 2 drops, lost a fish close to the hole and landed the big girl - CPR'd as well.  Hope to catch her again in a few years when she's 30"!  Just a word of advice to anyone looking for tip up lights - stay away from the HT's.  First time using one, brand new out of the package, tested and worked fine, only to fail on the 26" fish.  She spooled me before I saw my flag was up while clearing holes.  I'm sure glad I didn't loose her!

Heck yeah!
I'm going to start releasing more, maybe all the 21+'s, start harvesting stocked trout again.
Live/dead, artificial, or both?
