that puppy was 34 1/4 inches and i doesn't know how many lbs. (maybe 12?) any how it was a beautifull male, full of milt which my wife, well thats another story. the fish was semiplayed out so i kept it. the good old boys drifting spawn seemed to be doing the best. at the root i had one hookup on a stonefly nymph (lost it). stepped on more fish at the pike than i saw in the tank at the root. the pike seems to have more fish (warmer water ?) than the root. the weir is up at the root so there's no point in fishing above it till dnr passes some fish upstream, which is not likely in the near future. i wonder how michigan city pier will be at the next thaw. at the fatmans board there's link to wisc. stream info thats worth seeking out. they're here, go get em...i'm tryen
