- Catch Story: My soccer games were cancelled due to rains the day before so I asked my dad if we could go fishing. We were fishing off the bottom with some crawlers when I got a "knock knock" on the lines. I set the hook and the fight was on! It jumped out of the water and I couldn't believe it! It dove for the bottom under the boat. After about 10-15 of fighting it, we had it in the boat. Biggest fish I have caught to date! Still smiling as I type this!
