Awesome fish Jimmy.  Is there any chance that area would freeze up enough to get on this winter?  ... and if it did, would it be any good for hard water fishin'?

Nice eye.  Glad to see it is still swimming. I would have done the same thing because the smaller walleyes taste better.  A little bigger and it would have gone on the wall.  Congrats.

Nice fish most people would keep a fish that big. So great job because if you are not going to mount it you should through it back. A fish that big wouldnt taste as good as a 4 or 5 lb fish. Great Job!

Throw it back of course.  I throw back everything over 18" and will only keep one for the wall that is over 31". Once I have that one, they all will go back, until I hit a 32" ::)

Let her go!!!
So she can make other 8lb. monsters.
If fishing was work I'd never be sick!
