An excellent fisherman

Remember the picture I put up of the kid in the blue shirt holding up a catfish? Of all the people I've seen fishing Lake Wingra and Wingra Creek, he's the best I've seen so far. I ran into him for the third time yesterday down by Fish Hatchery. He was at the exact same spot where I caught the 18" northern earlier in the year. He said he was going for bass, but almost immediately after saying that he got a hit from a northern. He got it in and I measured it for him. 26.5" (the limit is 26") I took a few pictures and then he took off on his bicycle holding the fish over the handlebar.

Nice fish! He must have felt like a stud riding his bike through town with that big pike.
