Wow nice fish!! How long? Did u weigh it? one heck of a belly on her!

[Chad_Fish]

She was 30.5 didn't get a weight on her though

[leech~~]

Chad, looks like you had a nice day out there, nice to see those still. How much ice did you find?

[luv2rapala]

That is a good looking fish, nice work. Great video

[skiechaser83]

Awesome fish Chad. A 30.5" is something to be proud of, especially on the pond. They are tanks there this year. I got a 24.5 and a 27.5 today that looked like they were going to pop! It's also very good to see the 9-11'' eyes this winter. I also got a handful of those this afternoon.

You could see that was a heckuva fish when you set. Great job playing it ....like you've been there before. Nice!

[BartmanMN]

Wow. That's a fat girl there. That thing was thumping your rod good.

[Chad_Fish]

Thanks guys had 10-12 inches on the north end. It's great to see some healthy big fish out there along with a lot of smaller 8-10 inchers

How was the snow cover for taking out a sled? Almost melted my Hyfax last year in one day!

[river rat316]

WOW, nice vid, you stayed nice and calm, I would have come unglued when you got her out of the hole!!

[Hook'emhard]

UN-(dirty word) believable!! That is a pig!

[fish_hunt_guy]

Chad u getting a replica done?

[Chad_Fish]

Not a lot of snow on the lake leech around a inch. I am glad I got her on video and got some good pics but ya I am definitely thinking about getting a replica done.

[Crappieflop54]

Great video man. Congrats on the ever so elusive 30+!

Thanks for the snow report. I have such a hard time trying to setup and do a good video. Either the cams not on or I don't have it ready, angles off, fog up the lens, stand up to fight fish and block the cam etc, etc!

Doing video solo is definitely a pain in the winter with fogging especially with the gopro water proof cases. I use a skeleton case with handle bar mounts on the poles for inside the portable and for outside or underwater I use the waterproof case and apply rain x to help with the fogging. A large supply of batteries is a must especially when using wifi they don't last long

[Fowlmouth]

Wow, great catch!! Congrats

[Gordie]

Nice Eye and it is defiantly a pig.

[walleye29us]

[Stick in Mud]

Awesome fish. That's a HUGE fish out of Mille Lacs. And man those fish are fat this year.

[Wensel]

Well you let me know if you need a camera guy to help the next time you go! You seemed so lonely out their all by yourself!

[MaxGoldman]

That was exciting just watching that rod tip practically touching your toes haha.

If you ever have an opportunity to get the flex clamp mount that thing is all you need when ice fishing! I forgot I bought one over the summer so I was messing around with a roll bar mount last weekend on red then realized I had the clamp mount with, throw a camera on that baby and clamp it to anything camera stays solid the whole time, definitely glad I remembered that!
