sooooo... since i have now gotten this sent to me by 4 different people via text or email... i am assuming this is either 1).  no big secret or 2).  an internet/text falsehood.  as such... here is the picture... feel free to flag it and/or remove it if someone sees a problem w/ me posting.  first email i received on monday said caught last friday.

Nope, if I would have hooked it the thing would have fallen off at the bottom of the hole.  Then I would have nightmares of it for the rest of my life. Ha.

 That might be a DL record double chin. Zippy Dahl has some fierce competition.

Im going to take a stab and say the fish is held out quite aways away from the body and the guys fingers look huge in relation to everything else in the picture.  Its a nice fish but no a walleye pushing 15 lbs

 It is a great fish, I love it when all the fins and gills flare and the mouth is open. It would be a perfect mount just the way he's holding it, just about to suck in a lure!
SMASH!!!

 Funny thing.....  Plumber was over yesterday and his sons friend is the guy that caught it.  He showed me the pic on his phone.  He didnt know the weight, so I assume either does the guy that caught the fish.  I guessed 10+ based on it being 15 ft out in front of him.....kinda pizzed off the plumber.  A beautiful fish for sure.

YES, I am that foolish!

Well it's no greenback from Red River system - that's pretty clear.

Nothing wrong with reading Fishing Buddy and getting modeling tips from the captain
It is folly to assume my awesome lies dormant.

DL for sure?  The color on the fish would've had me guessing LOW but I'm wrong a lot.  Whomever took the photo captured the colors quite well.

Looks to be a devils lake back ground with the flooded timber look.

I don't disagree, however, the North end of Long Point could look like that too this time of year.

Regardless, hell of a fish and great colors in the photo, nothing not to like!
