    Caught this on Pool 4 Sunday. Anyone know what this is? The little guy was NOT happy to be in the boat! Even snapped at me a couple of times.

    Nice mudpuppy. You’re not a real pro until you get 5 or more in one day. That’s why you always fish with a buddy. When they’re not looking you can grab their gloves so you don’t have to get your own gloves all slimey.

    Mudpuppy. They will bite, and it HURTS. If you catch one in the summer you can set it down on the ground and it will walk back to the water.

    That’s bait for a 14# walleye if I’ve ever seen one……
