18" yellow perch had to be close to that also, those are some very big freshwater fish you're talking about.
oh yeah,every bit of that.
both came from Lake Saltonstall in branford/east haven Ct.
it is open to fishing now but when those fish were caught was years before that.

ya know,sometimes we would catch calicoes on spinnerbaits at night too and they were 17-18 inches on a regular basis.that was one of the reasons we switched to the musky jitterbugs was to keep them off it.
funny thing was most of the largest bass were just 5 pounds,some more but I know there has to be 10 pounders there.
funny,,,,
