Congrats! That's a beauty. And you're right.. they sure are tasty! Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)

i was thinking about releasing it, but i had to eat it....


  this lake really isn't all that good of a lake, but there are a lot of walleye in there. Some bigger than 30 inches. There are northerns that are bigger than 40 inches!!

You will release plenty of fish in the future I'm sure. I'm glad you enjoyed the meal that's why their here.  27 is the line that I let em go at.  26. It's a eater.  They are so tasty, I just ran down to the fridge and grabbed a cold hunk left over from yesterday batch.


AWESOME JOB on the fish Bro!

Not in a million years.

me either bbk  I put back several beauties last year of several differant species in hopes to catch them again or for someone else to have a story to tell too.   Kinda like that 51 in. muskie photo at the pc bait shop.   The story for that fish ended there.    CPR

You guys don't keep any fish? Come on, 26 ain't a monster in walleye land. Give BP a break. Kid took a nice fish and eat it. You act like he did something wrong. get real.  BTW just for the record I let more walleye go than most will ever catch but there here to eat. Most ain't even native they were stocked in a lot o places.

Nothing wrong with keeping a AVERAGE walleye for a meal. just sayin

You need a reality check, 26" is not average. 26" is a TROPHY according to the Iowa DNR.

Around here usually anything under thirty gets a trip to the fryer. Over thirty call the taxidermist

BBK do you keep fish?  The fish in you avatar are nice spawners.  Did you keep them?  Hollier that thou are you?  Your morals are all that we need to apply to our lifestyle?

If you disagree with keeping fish thats your right. I don't keep ANY walleye and thats all I fish for. but I have the right to.

We have different standards down here below Dunkirk. We eat them up to thirty-two inches! Good Fishing, Sluggo (Chris)
