I suppose there’s more than one way to catch a fish!

We typically would fish for sunnies and crappies (pan fish). I had never experienced catching any “big lunkers”. My husband and I went fishing and camping with some friends over the 4th of July a couple years back. Our friends brought their boat along so we could fish. They rigged my line with some fancy lure , I casted and was hoping to catch a big walleye. Not more than 15 minutes into our excursion the big one bit! I have never reeled anything bigger than a sunny, so I thought it was quite the fighter. I could barely get it in the boat! My husband grabs the net and we successfully netted the walleye into the boat. I am screaming with excitement that I caught this monster walleye and the first one of the day. Everyone in the boat is telling me to hush because people on the lake are going to come fish the spot that we our at after they hear a lady screaming with excitement. We measure the fish and it’s 20 inches long and in my mind I am thinking “holy cow”! Still on cloud 9 I ask, “Is that a good size fish?” Their response: that’s a good size, but I through back anything smaller than a 23 inch long walleye. Oh well, it’s still the biggest fish I ever caught!
