[QUOTE="Rowdie, post: 320417, member: 272"] I've said this a hundred times if I said it once. If I were catching fish for fun, and not to eat, I wouldn't target walleye. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] While I take pride in calling the species before seeing it on the end of my line, that doesn't apply to cranks. You really never know what the hell it is on a crank. I've been fooled by branches doing circles. The "fun to catch" fish aren't usually walleye. I doubt that 16 lb eye bent harder than some of those 40" northerns that smack cranks. Once my step-son snagged a HUGE buffalo carp in the back, we had to reel in and chase it down, still broke off that beautiful crank they don't make anymore. I'll bet it was 50 lbs. Now I'm not saying I wouldn't love to catch some pig walleye, just saying they're like reeling in a log that shakes its head a bit. [/QUOTE]
