AD got his fish on the Niagara Bar, day after the Super Bowl.  Pic is here (http://www.myfishfinder.com/fishing_forum/index.php?topic=4837.30).

Mine was bigger, but it popped off in Peggy's Eddy.

Mine is a mere 16 pounder caught through the ice at Blue Mesa Reservoir in Colorado. Last year I hooked one in another lake that was twice the size, but he escaped close to the hole.

My biggest is 24 lbs. 11. oz. 39 1/2" long.   I have caught many over 20lbs.  Lake Ontario is a great place to catch 14+ lbs. lakers daily.  20+ lb. lakers are very common.

Just have to fish with people that know how and where to catch them. If you are going to fish it and never have go with a charter the first time to learn as much as you can.
