Nice Catch! Those are some awesome looking whites. Congrats. If you fry those whites in pancake batter, they taste awesome IMO.
BTW do you leave the wire worm still or do jig it. If you jig the wireworm how do you jig it. I have gone to many lakes and just see the whitefish swim by my wireworm uninterested.

A fish cop threatened to charge me with chumming if I kept wearing that coat. I guess some guy named mike phoned me in!

I bounce the rod tip in one spot, then jig it up and down a few inches.
