ice fishing is my passion, my favorite sport, I'm talking day and night man and i couldn't catch a thing. I went on a three year drought and could only catch a pickerel or a catch fish and up here in MAINE that's not what we are after. So me and my friend headed out of the shack into the cold to skim our ice holes, my Nasty felt like getting a little crazy and he had a trap set up half way across the lake from us, he took his truck to go tend his trap and i got a flag. So i walked to it thinking yeah right and dragging my feet saying it's prob a wind flag. I swear i was probably 40 feet or so from the trap and i could hear the spool spinning, so yeah i took off running FAST. When i got there it was taking line out so fast i thought it was going to rip the line off. So it took about 275 yards of line and slowed down so i took him. I knew it was big and he wasn't happy. You could barely here Nasty out there go ''you got him''? And i said yup nice one , so he drove his pickup about 70 across the lake. By the I had the fish in kinda close and the line was flying from one side of the hole to the other Nasty got down by the hole and was ready to scoop what ever i had on that hook out on to the ice. I said ''Nasty it's ****ing big i'm telling yeah''. It was tough getting him up by the hole man! When i finally did the first time it looked so huge me and the Nasty one could barely talk and it went on a run and took about 100 yards again. nasty looked up at me like this  and said ''did you see the size of that ****ing fish"? "I said wow" and looked like this So i got the fish back to the hole so we could see it again and it went on another run, this thing was pulling hard. OK so i get the thing back to the hole again and it goes on another run Now I'm nervous about the fish cutting through the leader line, so i tell Nasty "alright I'm taking him this time so get ready" So i get the fish 3 quarters out of the hole and the leader line snaps! Then everything looked like slow motion, the fish was flopping, Nasty was trashing around in the hole with it and i yelled "don't loose that ****ing fish"! the he hooked it some how by both gills with his fingers and flipped it on the ice like it was cheese. And we started screaming and high fiveing like crazy pissing everybody else on the lake off it was crazy!! It was a dinosour looking hook jaw brown man i mean battle scarred and mean looking with someone elses hook in his throat, the 3 years off being skunked finally paid off in a bid way. We left 20 minutes after that and had it digitely weighed right down the road and it was 8 pounds 4 ounces about 29or 30 inches BOOOOSH!!!
