This year Regular season opener for MN found me on p. trizzy lake, with my brand spanking new 3 weight and my 8 weight. It was a really nice day. we found ourselves fishing the shallows, sightfishing to crappie and panfish. I got to break in the new rod right. we spotted a monster northern in about 6" of water, he looked like a small croc, we estimated him to be somewhere around 35" long and wide. He had fresh scars all the way down his back. we both tried to entice him to bite, I was using a small green woolybugger and Naaz had a large red bomber. needless to say we got him to follow all the way back to the boat and we both got hung up on some lillypads. oh well it was a great day!!!
