More Monsters...

One week later, and another Saturday morning of fishing before work. I cannot thank my wife enough for affording me the opportunity to get some time in to get out and chase some fish with some good buds...

This one here is a 39" northern caught on a tip up rigged with a large pimple coupled with a stinger hook and topped off with a big ol' sucker minnow. The tip ups have quickly become a massive and integral part of our arsenal out on the lake. In military terms you would call those a "force multiplier". Oh, wait a sec, quick Google search... here it is right here... "Force Multiplier Definition noun any activity or equipment which increases the combat effectiveness of a military grouping without actually increasing its firepower (such as engineer support, electronic warfare, deception, and surprise)"
Suckers, in my humble opinion, can catch anything, from the big nasty cats in the river to these sleek, monster northerns in the lake, suckers are the deal for real.
