Fished sawyer Sunday from 12:00 till 5:00 and caught and lost what I believe is the biggest fish I have caught to date....Now some of you know me...how sometimes I cannot guess the size of a fish even when it is on a scale but this is how it went......
Was dropshotting in 19 feet of water off one of the main points and felt a nice tap and pressure bite so I did a nice dropshot hookset.....smooth, not "Jerky" and felt some good pressure so I reeled down and lowered the rod tip anticipating a rapid ascent of a streaming Smally only to feel a Very Hard pulsing downward like a big fish burying its nose down and keeping it down...I would gain a foot it would take three, I would gain 5 feet it would take 6! For 2-3 mins I could only get it 5-6 feet off bottom and with knees shaking while getting the net from under the console I gave some mild slack and..............it was gone.....just gone....no look......no "I splash at you" soaking....nothing I spent an hour and a half combing the area and even after catching a paltry 2 lb smally and two one pound largemouth I still have this void........so it...begins...I will not rest till that fish is .....mine......Oh how I love this sport!

Yes Larry, I heard that there are a lot of coho running through Sawyer right now...

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 

Just kidding, my man. May the fish gods someday grant you that fish.
