Caught my personal best Mississippi River Northern on Saturday. It was during a bass tournament so I didn’t have a camera in the boat but it measured 40 inches. She was flawless and healthy. It hit a super Spook Junior a few feet from the boat. I watched the wake as it tracked the bait and I had to stop the retrieve before I ran out of real estate. She jumped on it and after a minute I got my hands around her. Pool 4 has a strong population of Northerns right now. Keep moving and you’ve got a good shot at a mid 30’s fish. The fish are everywhere but the weed beds in Peterson, Robinson and Big Lake are a good place to look.
