    Whats the biggest Walleye you have caught since the 1st of this year. General location (state, country, lake) would be helpful. Caught on?

    Caught about 4 between 28-28.5 on the Rainy River this April near Birchdale.

    Everything was caught on white/pink pulse-r’s or white paddletails.

    I have no idea if the fish pictured are one of those or not so don’t question the photos.

    I agree with the best, not with the overlooked part though. I use it all the time especially dead stickin in the winter. It consistently out fishes anything else I throw down the hole.

    I forgot that I was done posting pictures on IDO. Not worth the effort anymore. It was right 5 minutes after I posted it. Makes no sense to me.

    I have probably boated well over 100, nothing over 21″ and I think that was in February on Pool 2. Slow year for big fish on my end.
