Location: Madison, WI | Yesterday I up'd my personal best by an inch! After watching her blow up on a duck, I took a topwater and gave it a toss in the area.. After about the 3rd cast she blew up and missed the bait, so I fired another one back. She took another swing and missed... ..but got right back on it, pushed wake for about 4 ft and just crushed the bait about 10 ft from the boat. Made a quick run towards the boat, went under the boat then hit the afterburners. I swear she was 10 ft on the other side. (I've never felt so much power before) After a couple more power runs, Andy was able to scoop her in the net, after cutting a bunch of hooks, we took a couple of pictures, measured her out to 46 inches and let her go. It was an awesome experience, I've been waiting for a fish like that for 3 years. This sport has brought me soo many memories and some great friends to share them with.
