Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame 1

One of the cool and windy days while at the Flowage we decided to take a ride in to Hayward and check out the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame again. John has been a member for over 10 years now and we get a free pass to visit the place and take advantage of it every few years to see how many changes have been made.


On October 18, 1983 a friend of ours, Bob LaMay caught this fish while fishing for walleye (he said) on the High Falls Flowage in Northern Wisconsin. He was only using 6# test line on his rod and reel and landed this 50 pound Musky.

Bob passed away a few years ago, but I know he was really proud of his accomplishment. One of the fishing Clubs I belong to and we were both President of at one time or another would put the fish on display at the Sport Show in Green Bay from time to time.
