The Big Fish that Didn't Get Away

Okay, so most fishing stories end with "the big one that got away"; but not this time. Last Sunday afternoon we totally left a mess at the house and took advantage of a beautiful warm fall day on Percy Priest lake. It was a "busy" time on the boat, but in between putting all the minnows back in the bucket, consoling Adam over a lost fishing rod dropped in the lake, and turning back upright spilled sodas, I managed to hook this fish. WOW!
