Fishing was slow, so we all moved around quite a bit. I moved closer to the shore in 11ft of water. Fished a half an hour and didn't mark a thing. As I was getting ready to move, A huge red mark came up to my spoon & smashed it! Heart was thumping & I swear I didn't breathe for 10 minutes. I'm glad Mike saw me and came over, as I'm not sure I could of gotten her out on my own. Glad I had an 8in. hole, it barely fit through that!
Tried to get a weight on it, but couldn't get it to stay on the scale. Guesstimating 33-34 inches, as my gold measuring board ends at 23in, then we measured (added) another 11 inches.
Been a great ice fishing season this year, Man I love retirement!! ;D
