Monster Fight with this fish today!

Went out to Ladue with another IFO member and I locked into this historic perch in 5 feet of water!  It took me about a half hour give or take a couple of minutes to bring him home.  Had to drill a second hole next to the original one for I just could not work him through that original 6" hole.  My forearms were burning at the end and sweating from exhaustion.  I'm sure the responses will be good!

That's the biggest perch I've ever seen!! Got to be a record or something.  You need to invest in at least a 10-12 inch auger.  That fish will taste good, you can feed at least 6 people on that!!
