Monster Eye!

[bringley]

Fished the niagara river for steelhead and lakers yesterday, was doing decent with 3 lakers all in the dobble digets and 2 small steeles when my flaot goes down again.

It had all the feeling of a monster laker staying down in the current and swimming slow makeing long powerful runs. After a 5-10 min fight i bring it to the net and my buddy (who netted it) says you aint gonna believe this!! It was a monster walleye! we put her on the scale and it reads 15.6 lbs! I am no expert on walleye fishing and I get small ones here and there on accident but this was a true hog. I would have loved to get that thing mounted but I had a good feeling that they are out of season so I turned her loose, the girth on this thing exceeded 20'' took a white 1/64 oz jig!

I was super pumped and just thought I would share with some folks who are walleye experts like yourselfs!

I think the state record is 17 lbs. or something. That is a beast!!!! Any pics?

[HOLY DIVER]

you cant tell a story like that and not show us a pix. thats a slob!!!!

[Draggin Ballz]

Please tell me you got pictures...

[bringley]

I do have pictures on a Kodak disposeable camera, not sure if I could get those on the computer?

Just out of curisoity how big of walleye have you ever caught?

[Draggin Ballz]

My largest is 29 1/2 inches...never got a weight but I would venture a guess of around 9 lbs.

[HOLY DIVER]

Here is what you need to do: bring the camera to Wal-Mart tell them you want your pix added to a CD I just did the same thing it cost an extra 2dollers!!! Take the CD home and pull the pix from it and post,post POST

my best is 10.4 32 1/4 inches

Wow.. Nice fish! Too bad it was a week too soon! That beast would look nice on the wall. You beat my best (this year's 13#2oz) by a bunch. The state record is 16#7oz. Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)

Nice going on the fish of a lifetime and congrats on releasing it. 1/64 oz jig blows my mind! Did the lakers hit that too? How did you have this rigged?

[bringley]

Pics are comming dont worry! Made a dent in the remaining film on the camera in the river today with 4 lakers and 8 steelhead in the Devils Hole. I have been getting em good the last 6 days down there.

The jig is fished on a 13' leader with about 10grams of weight on the main line. I use a 15' float rod and a center pin reel. I was talkin to one of the guys that guide down on the river and he told me that every year he catches walleyes that are well over 10.

has anyone seen this fish yet I have been checking everyday the biggest eye I have ever seen was 10lb and I thought that was hugh I cant wait te see this thing.

[HOLY DIVER]

I work up in the falls area weekly just a short drive to Lewiston!! Ill help bringley finish his roll of film **** ill give him a ride to Wal-mart and show him how to drop it off at the one hour ….. I think if I caught a 15.6lb walleye i would have filled the camera and RAN to the nearest store but that’s just me and every one else I know………………

But ill give bringley the benefit of the doubt until proven guilty…..

[FREEMAN77]
