Pete and Betsy – I positioned the boat in a far back bay with lots of weeds. keep reelin’ in – don’t stop I said, and sure enough a nice northern hit. It was well over 30 inches. Moments later Betsy had the BIG ONE on. 40 inches or better – this one came to the boat fighting. Betsy had all she could do to hold on, then, with one quick turn the line caught in his teeth – and there it was – GONE.
