bassinandrew88 Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 I went out on Smithville Lake here in MO and had a good day. I had the bite early on weightless trickworms but it quickly shut down. We tried a few things but we ended up throwing crankbaits through and around a creek channel we found that had some shad action. I caught 3 under 2 lb bass and my buddy was fairing a little better, catching a 4 lb and 5 lber. Anyway, with all this bass action it was my (pleasant?) surprise to catch this beautiful walleye. 30.5" 12.5 lbs! For reference, I'm 6' 2", 200 lbs. Quote
Bass n Bows Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 That is a great eye! I'm not quite sure that it looks to be twelve pounds. Great fish anyways, grab it under the gills and lose the gloves. Quote
wisturkeyhunter Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Nice fat walleye but seriously doubt its 12 pounds. Quote

Super User .dsaavedra. Posted June 2, 2008 Super User Posted June 2, 2008 is it just me or do all walleyes look like they've been dead for a few hours? Quote

IDbasser Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Nice walleyes both of you. And I have to agree with the rest that it does not look like a 12 lb walleye, I catch them here in Idaho. That other one is huge, and I would say looks more like a 12 lber. Might need a new scale. Quote
Super User Sam Posted June 3, 2008 Super User Posted June 3, 2008 Dave, Yes, it is just you. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Quote
Bass n Bows Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 The guy in the pic with the huge walleye is not me. I just took it off google images to show a reference of what a 12lb. walleye should look like. Sorry for not clarifying. Quote
Daniel My Brother Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Regardless of the weight, that is a nice Walleye. Congrats. Quote
