Default Caught a big one in William switzer!

We caught the big one in William switzer. I think it’s going to become a water pump for my rain barrel!

Neat catch. Should get it mounted. How deep was it?

About 10 feet. We had to tape the paddle to the net handle to loosen it up a bit then snake it with the anchor

I left a really nice ice chisel in heart lake 30 years ago. I'm sure it is stabbed into the bottom in about 14 feet of water. I can give you the bearings if you want to go get it...

Ever done the ever growing sport of magnet fishing? Its gaining popularity all over and is quite fun. Seems like you would enjoy it. Grab a fishing magnet and some para cord from Amazon and catch away
