    Looks notably bigger than that, unless the photos just make it look big (assuming that 20-25 meant inches).

    Nice fish. I think Katmando is dead on in his weight guess of 20-25 lbs and he needs to instruct this lucky fisherman how to hold a big channel cat.

    I’d be lying if I said i didn’t try to read both the water tower and the exit sign.

    I sure hope they weren’t targeting Muskie with those sucker minnows that’s a closed season ya know….. “sarcasm”

    Looks around 20 pounds possibly….

    Interesting Auger pattern….did you guys do that before you hooked into the monster or was that on the fly once you realized she wasn’t coming up a 6 inch hole?

    Nice Fish!
