Another Good Day

Nice report Kent.Too bad that huge fish wasn't a 30" walleye.You sure would have been stressing if trying to get a big eye in that small net.

Yes, the reason I got the net was because I lost a pig over at Huron last Summer. The water resistance on the net was hard to over come while the boat was moving.. One arm holding rod and one on the net.. We have all heard the term " The Shot Heard Around the World" Just put another word in place of "Shot" Yep that was me!
That cat was much bigger than any 30 inch eye Ive ever caught, but you make a good point!

I know exactly what you mean about the water resistance on the net using one hand. I fished solo on Lk Michigan a couple times last week and miraculously got a king and a lake trout in the net. I figured out that stabbing the net into the water at the last second was about the only way to keep the hooks out of it, even though I've always been taught not to stab at them. Lol

Good job, by the way.

I may have to give that a try Jawbreaker.. Maybe practice on some farm animals.. lol

I had a partner yesterday, we took two tickets.. A lot easier when you have 2 arms for the rod and two for the net. Thank goodness I can set a course with the ix5.. So steering not a big issue. Just figuring that out.. lol
