The One That Got Away!!!

Everyone has their own fish story  so I’ll share one from last night. Scott and I got out for a couple of hours and we missed three times as many as we caught. Scott’s first line pulled up this lovely Walleye in seconds and the below photo shows one of the small Walleye I caught.

What I want to mention is the 2 hard hits Scott got….The first one pulled the tip-up down the hole – Scott was elbow deep getting the line back and he thought he had a good hook in but as he was reeling in the big one it disappeared. The sheer frustration of not knowing what was on  the other end…we just know that it had quite a bit of weight to it. The second big hit on Scott’s line had us scrambling to get to it and as he was reeling it up he allowed a slight lapse to the tension and another one got away….The man is forever telling me not to let the line go slack when reeling in so needless to say there were a few colourful words phrases spoken after that incident.

All other hits were small Walleye – but it was a great way to spend a few hours.
