....today is my son's last day at the lake for the summer as he heads back to college this weekend. We got one last trolling session in this morning and he hauled in this nice laker to end his summer...

Nice catch. Thanks for sharing the pic. I'm not a fisherman, so you can tell me where he caught it. Depth?

What fun, and memories to boot. Lucky guy...his college is in session. Our grandson will be a college freshman this year, and he’s going, but the future beyond the first few weeks remains uncertain....in person or remote classes? Not an easy time, for sure.....

My youngest son, and both sons girlfriends are starting college this year. All of their classes the first semester will be remote. The colleges they are going too, will have some classes that will meet (lab sciences, etc.)... anything and everything that can be done remotely is going to be done that way... So no one is head off to college in my world.... They where all planning to commute anyways as the schools they chose are local.... but the commute is even shorter then planned.....

Thanks! I know fishermen are supposed to keep things quiet, but I'm a pay-it-forward kinda guy... We got it off Bear Island, about 70' down in about 100' of water. And no, it did not end up in the frying pan or on the grill...we safely removed the lure without any damage and put it back. It is still out there...
