    Man… did you put that one a scale by chance? Looks like the fish gods and law of averages are finally evening out after your so… so… season up to this point.
    Heck of a nice fish!

    If it wasn’t so pretty, I would think it to be a walleye!

    Caught this 31 inch 15 pound channel out on the St. Croix fishing Stuggies in 32 feet of water. Gave one heck of a fight;) I was fishing cut shad with a crawler on #5 circle hook.

    All nice fish
    It’s been a great year on the St.Croix for me also, though not to many pic’s, caught a beauty at 32″ 16lbs. right before dark last night on cut sucker in 6 fow.
    I have to find me a camera guy or better yet girl, that don’t mind the late night fishing in the fog.

    Great looking channels Dtro!

    River Pro? I’ve never seen a River Pro with a pedestal base.

    ..unless it’s the “low rider”.
