Default Finally! Weahter broke

After nearly a month with no rain it finally rained and the temps dropped dramatically. I went out to a local lake (Bishop, Brighton, MI) and a friend from work came with me. We moved around the lake fishing the drop-offs since there are a lot. I caught one small LM with a paca-craw c-rigged. Then my buddy got the big one. A 25 inch, 5.5 lb LM on a nightcrawler harness. Now I have to go back there since I know they are in there.

He fought it so hard it took two fingers off! j/k he lost them at a previous job.

The biggest one I have ever caught was 23.5" and just over 3 lbs. I guess they just don't get that big up here.?

a 23 1/2 inch fish weighs at least 7 1/2 lbs.your scale is broken.a fish that length that weighed 3 lbs would be skinny like a pickeral.usually you think people say a fish weighs more than it does.i'm trying to convince you your's are bigger than you say!!!
