Not much of a fight, was looking for Bass, but got this instead. All I caught this morning, and I just ate it. Caught on a KVD Lipless.

    Mine too. My first eye was about 8 inches. Got him on a bottom bouncer and he was so small I didn't even realize I had a fish on. I dragged him around the lake for a good 30 minutes before I reeled in to check my bait and saw that I had a fish on. 

     

    Nice walleye Jig Meister. How was your walleye dinner?

    Doesn't really get any easier than a walleye or yellow perch on the fillet board.
