Just look at my fisherman grandson! Emerson has done it again. This baby must weigh in at about 20 lbs. Emerson just loves fishing and so do I. To bad I was not present to see him reel this one in. Apparently it took about 25 minutes to land him. One can see why, as you don't want that big fish to snap your line.

Our latest fishing expedition to a northern lake, where we stayed in a family cabin, proved fantastic for fishing. My grandson was thrilled as he would pull in a maximum of 3 large fish each day. So, needless to say, I was busy butchering and cleaning fish. After cleaning, I could clean them so that there were no bones in the fish stakes. After each fish fry, we totally enjoyed ourselves both cleaning them as well as eating them.
