Looks like about 28". The tape looks like it's about an inch ahead of its lip. Beauty of a fish. Congrats!  ;D

I appreciate your honesty  ;D I guessed 10 lb  because she had a huge girth and of course we were using 6" holes ...

Perch don't fight like an eye, but they are also tasty.  Good luck on the pannies.

no perch don't fight like walleye but the bait shop is near the bluegill hole ..... need some large bait for the big fish  :tipup:

So you have better luck with tipups up there than jigging ?
 Well I’d be doomed
Title: Re: Nice walleye
Post by: eyehi on Mar 09, 2018, 09:25 AM
not necessarily,  I use tip ups and jig .... the tip ups help locate the walleye when the schools swim thru .... jumbo perch also trigger the tipups as well ..... when I get perch flags I pull the tip up and jig usually get a few jumbo perch this way ...
