Must be a lot of these monsters lurking the waters. Here is a picture of the one my wife caught on Feb. 1 near Camp Perry at 10:00 am. This fish measured a little over 32 inches and I won't have a weight on it until the taxidermist thaws it out. Bad part about this story is I had it hooked on a blue and silver Lil Cleo and fought with it to get its head to start up thru the hole and my wife went to grab it, pulled it half way out and the fish threw the hook and needless to say went back down and all I could do was watch it looked dazed as it swam away. Wasn't 2 minutes later and that same fish hit on her blue and silver Sweedish Pimple and the battle was on again. I managed to pull that fish out of the hole and again it threw the hook but didn't have near the fight as the first time around. Truly a magnificent and beautiful creature. Be safe out there next week and have fun!
