Awesome pics.  That's what it's all about!  There is something special about catching fish in our interior rivers so close to home. Then to catch a fish of that caliber, well that really speaks volumes.  Great fish, you've certainly earned it. 

Sure beats ice fishing, right?  ;)

Thank you! Catching her close to home definitely makes it that much more special.

It most definitely beats ice fishing!  8)

Got lucky one day a few years ago a got 3 over 28” and 2 over 29” 50 lbs of fish on 5 cast one after the other all released. Had a buddy of mine stop to see what I was up to and watched me catch them and he said it was unreal to see that done from shore.
May your days be filled with sun shine and you always have a tight line. AMEN

Thank you! Honestly for what little more replicas cost, the longevity of them, and the abilities that these specialized taxidermists have to make a blank mold come to life, I was happy to see her swim away and will be even happier when I get her twin back in six months.

Brennan the funny thing was I could have taken a step off the rocks and would have been in a 21’ ranger of a guy that was guiding. They got 2 and left after I got 5
