Fat Ass Walleye 10/29/18
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've been continuing with my vampire ways the last couple weeks. Plucking walleyes here and there on river. The majority have been smaller fish on plugs and soft plastics but they've been extremely fat. Then I went out for 1.5-2 hours last night. I casted until my arms almost fell off then BAM! My plug got crushed! 2-3 seconds in--GONE! She shook off. Mother f'er! Kept casting the area in slow deep water. About 5 casts later my plug got demolished again. This time she stuck and I'm glad it did! My lure was t-boned right across her mouth--front and back trebles buried in the corners of her mouth and middle treble thru the top lip. She was hung GOOD.

She taped out at 26.75" but the impressive part is quite obvious. The sheer girth was bananas. Solid belly full of everything lol... they swim away so much stronger in the cold water! Pic below. I'll keep at it until my guides freeze.

Beautiful fish. Can cast for hours and that one hit makes it all worth while. Congrats real beauty. You put in the hours so you deserve the rewards. Fish seem to be active of late getting ready for the long winter.

Thanks guys. Been hammering away this season and have gotten some really good fish. The nights are wearing me down though. I'll embrace winter once its here...and hopefully we have ice to stand on during them days!
