Went out with my dad yesterday and we were hunting the big one. All we were catching was small fish until I had a big pike hit a lure of mine by the boat on the surface. Bigger than 10 pounds and not sure exactly how big it was cause it broke my line. So there went my 10 dollar crank that was getting all the action. So pulled out a huge Rapala and we started to troll and something nailed it and started pulling drag... which was crazy because I had it quite tight with 20 pound spiderwire. Well when she surfaced 50 yards from the boat I saw the wake and said dad its a big fish only big fish make a wake. Netted this guy and a rough measurement was 37.5 inches... could have been a little longer but we did the standing measure which is difficult. Let this big girl go to swim again.
