What's Your Biggest Catch?

[moonshine]

Well the list so far is: 55 inch Sturgeon 1993, 27lb pike 1986, 46 in Gar 1984, 12lb Laker this year, 7.6 lb SM 2007, 8.25 lb Large Mouth when i was 18 yrs old. I'd like to round off with a big walleye some time soon(only 6 lbs right now) and beat one of my other PB's

I have been fortunate over the years, Even though I hate fishing there and rarely go there I have caught a 19 lb pike and 15 lb walleye from Bay of Quinte. A LMB from Collins Lake that would have broken 7lbs and a SMB from Charleston that was well over 6lbs. My biggest laker is only about 12lbs. Steelhead of about 15lbs. A bunch of 20 plus Chinooks but nothing special there.

Not the biggest for there species but my most memorable catches were both pure "sharks" of there environments. A 28" resident brown trout from marginal Salt Creek north of Colborne. He came from a chute below a 3' culvert. He had about 4 big bullfrogs in his belly.

Trumping that was a beautiful 13" male brookie with a kype and humped back all done up in spawning colours that I caught on the last day of the season. What was remarkable was he was caught 5 minutes from my house in a mile and a half long 2' wide spring fed trickle. This little brook was my classroom and ever since I was a kid I'd sit quietly on the bank and watch all the trout in the stream. The biggest trout I'd caught or seen there was maybe 7" until that day he swam out from an undercut bank. He looked like JAWS in the little trickle.

A 700 lb seal caught while buzz bombing for salmon on the west coast. Well..."caught" is probably not the right word, unless you consider a long distance leader release "caught"
