A real nice laker, what did it wiegh? We do not have them that big here or at least none has been caught that big.. The biggest that has come out of the lake I fish for them at is 28lbs. I lost one this past March ice fishing that was probably in the 20lb range. I had it hooked by the lip and it got caught up on the ice at the bottom of the hole..

I caught it in lake superior. It weighed 38 lbs and was 42 inches long, it also had a 30 in girth and that was a day later i measured the girth at the taxidermist so who know what it was before it lost its water weight
