Hit the river for a few today missed two on a spinnerbait, one fell off right at shore and the other out in the middle. Moved down to a different spot and threw a rapala and saw a big flash but another miss. Now I was getting pissed, so I put on a large mepps and finally I hooked up! This was a good one, pulling out drag until I finally got him in and took a couple of pics. Not the best pics, it was very muddy I was by myself and slidding all over.

Not sure how big maybe 32-34 inches but a good fight!

....then he took off

...this little guy was as cold as an ice cube when I picked it up
