    April hog

    I took some time off work this week and got in quite a bit of fishing. Overall, it was slower than a few weeks ago, but I did catch this 35" in 9' of water. Not quite a cow, but certainly a hog. The reel started screaming and I had to chase it down a bit. I was pleased to release it and watch it swim away.

      Nice catch, great to see your time on the water rewarded. It appears that quality made up for lack of quantity....
      good luck in May!
