I may be in for one of those. That was a great idea. I have two of those Blat rods and fully enjoy them, best spinning rod I have been able to fish with. Excited to see what you come up with!

Lol!! Where's the lawn chair and a drink in this picture?? Careful, relax any more you're going to fall in :)

Oh boy.. Seems to be alot of changes and things going on in the fishing world don't it!? What a drama filled year or two it has been.

That's a cool looking fish!

Wow, what a fish!

A place called Devil's Lake in a state park in Sauk county here in Wis.  I think its one of the only places in the state that they stock these in.  Don't quote me on that, I may be wrong about it being the only place, but that's what I have been told by some people I have talked to.  Pretty cool fish.  Been doing some homework as to how to target them now that I know they are in there!

That's awesome sir, 👏

I have always known this as being called a flathead. Doing a quick search, the name you gave is also correct I believe, same fish. 2 years ago I caught one bigger in the same lake, it was a blast for sure!

Good to hear that you and fam are doing alright 👍.
