Way to go on the release, sounds like these giant beauties are in some trouble in areas

They put up a darn good fight.  They stress the old icefishin' reel pretty good.  They can bake off some line in a hurry and tend to roll quite a bit.  After each fish my line would have twists all over it.  Makes for a nice change from the little fellers.  Gotta love worrying about whether or not you have enough reel on your line to handle the runs :D
