Walleye of a Lifetime...
I was lucky enough to hook up with this big girl Wednesday afternoon. Biggest Walleye I've ever seen in my life by a very wide margin.
I'm not very good at uploading pictures and my internet connection is very poor but I'll give it a shot.

Very nice! Just need the name of the lake and bait used to verify the post/pic.

Lake Diefenbaker, SW Saskatchewan. Crankbait, I think it's a Cotton Cordell.

Sad part is we could have had our own Dief, but we voted against the boundary dam. Breaks my heart to think of a fishery that good right outside of Med. Hat. What could have been.

Sadly no...
Pictures is all I have.
Somehow my Scale/tape dissapeared from the boat between the last two outings.
That's the only regret I have about a wonderful experience.
I have a guesstimate in mind and those that were with me.
I'd welcome to hear anyone elses guess.

This is only for fun and speculation because I don't have any accurate measurements. But I would swear to it that that fish is significantly more than 30"

Wow what a fish! Nice! I would say easily over 30” as well probably pushing the 36” length unless you have really tiny hands hah. Weight I would have no clue. Is it catch and release in that lake?
