James and I just finished a television shoot in which we hopefully were able to capture the tendon snapping power of these special fish here on the Rainy River. We were fortunate enough to find ourselves toe to toe far more big fish than we could have hoped for. Jumping, Rolling and cirling our boat like toothless sharks made this experience like no other fishing. We had 1 or 2 boats around us only on rare occassions, and predominately dished out a heavy hand of “Night Crawler Smackdown” to these prehistoric “DINOS” all by our lonesome. Kudos to Mark the “Camera Stud” for all the awesome shots he was able to capture in the heat of the moment, and also for keeping his composure as 2 anglers were jumping around like school kids in that 1790 Tiller from Skeeter!!
For all of you anglers that have NOT fished for these drag screaming Subs I suggest you spool up the heavy stuff and give it a shot!! Sometimes it is worth resisting the temptations of fishing with the mass, and getting out on your own.
I hope this show finds Ido Boys everywhere gripping a cold one tight while in your fighting chair in front of the televison next season!! Gonna be some “Must See” TV!! I’m all for calling it Ultimate Fighting IDO STYLE!! As long as BK is NOT the ring girl between rounds!!
See you on the water Team!!!
