Funny thing is the big white I caught at Calling did not have a pronounced hump on the back like the Pigeon Lake fish in the pictures. Just long, thick, and deep bodied.

I suspect that there is an Alberta Record swimming in there. But to catch them consistently is the puzzle.

I’ve caught a bunch of whites from pigeon with worms in the stomach and it was a mixture of red, green, brown, teal looking color wire worms. But as of lately no worms in them just shrimp I also think the ones that had the worms in them were more bottom feeders than mid column feeders.
