Nice clear day but a tad breezy
Fooled one
Same fish 8.5 lbs and the skimmer is 22" long. Didn't have time to measure it as I ended the surgery early and cut the leader and sent it back to get bigger.
Did I mention it was a tad windy? I found a patch of snow and wedged the shanty between the dog sled and snow machine and tied it down!
A little venison burger to end the day
All in all not a bad day. A couple of smaller ones manged to introduce themselves but at least the sun was warm!
