Mammoth Red River Willie (Manitoba) muscled up by David Parker! The fish measured a staggering 34.5” and was 17.23 pounds.
Pictures are not very good, but what a giant!!! I would not be able to fish for about 2 hours after landing something like that(still would be shaking).
All I think of when I see those pictures is John Belushi in Animal House when the horse dies in the deans office... "Holy SHIT, Hhhooollllyyyy SSSHHHHIIITTT, HHHOOOOLLLLLYYYY SSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHIIIIIITTTTTTTT."
