  • Catch Story: Caught this while fishing for them, I was super happy to catch a new lifer and even more excited when we were documenting it and realized it beat the MN record by quite a bit. She was so fat and must have been spawning, I really hated to have to take her, but we knew she could be a once in a lifetime fish so we had it weighed on a certified scale and sure enough. It's currently in the process of being confirmed by the state for the New MN State Record!!!
