I fished at the Susitna Lodge's lake cabin in the mountains. Flew in a pontoon plane to get there. It wasn't White Fang but to a teenager from Illinois, it was. Was stranded there alone for three days. Hearing wolves howl at night when you are alone in the high country. ..will make every hair on your body stand up.
I caught a fish or two. Will never forget that time. I mean Alaska...yeah. I want to go back bad.

Thought it was going to be bigger. The world record is over 70 and I know lake Superior has spit a couple fish over 60.
That fish might be #25.

Yeah. I wasn't real impressed with that greaser either.
I hooked into a Northern on DL a few years ago at was big enough to push water up through 27" of ice when he came under the hole.
Played him for 30 minutes before breaking off a 50# mono and never saw it above the ice

The pictures of some if the fish they take out there are nuts.
7 fish limit, fishing 5 guys, we drilled 12 holes and never got more than 8 tip ups set...several times we had 3 fish on at once
