Spillway Fishing

Here are some pictures of my recent fishing trips... the place I caught these fish is 8 minutes away.
We have been catching a lot of Wipers, which is a hybrid fish of a white bass and a striper. This is what they look like:


2 days ago I went down to the spillway expecting to catch more Wipers, which we did, but not as much. Instead, these Walleye were biting on our jig and plastic minnow setups. I had never caught a Walleye so I had my buddy take this picture

Then, 10 minutes later, I hooked into this 23 inch, 5 lb monster Walleye! It was quite the fight. I told the Asian guy next to me that I would give him my next fish I caught. He was more excited than I was to see this thing come out of the water! This is a big size for Walleye. We had a good time if you can't tell by the smile on my face.

Josh what does your shirt say? It looks hilarious! Does it say something like "Isn't Texas cute?"
HAHA

Looks fun! I feel like I haven't gone fishing in forever! Probably because it's been about that long :)
