Walleye!!!

I must blog that today, 10 July 2005, I got Walleye fish....I tell you, the feeling is like getting a trophy after a long badminton tournament season. The fish is 2 feet long. I got it around 2. 15 pm at a river in Ohio. All my friends said it's rare to get Walleye during this time in a river.

It's interesting to catch this fish. Normally, for that kinda fish, it will fight like hell and I had to reel hard. But today, this fish didn't fight. In fact, I thought it's a small fish when I reeled it in. I didn't even noticed my bait was eaten. After I reeled it in, it dropped from my hook. Instead of swimming away, the fish just stayed in that exact spot when it landed...I was actually panicking when the fish was off the hook, I threw away my fishing rod, and my friends came in to surround the fish, but hehehe...the fish stayed there...lucky us!

I got another 4 white sucker fish throughout those 3 hrs duration, but I let them go. With fishing license fee of 11 bucks, Ohio proves to be a cheap place to fish with high return on investment.
