2020 has been tough but for me it was a year pretty good to me for fishing, not so much number of trips but in PB’s.   Today was another one, as I decided to leave the bass alone and strictly go somewhere to catch a river walleye, even if it took all day to get one.   Well I found a couple dinks  at first and was pretty happy about it.  Then as I was making a drift if got a big ole thump through the fluorocarbon that was unmistakable, set the hook and nothing happened as I thought I was hung.  Then it started fighting and when I got it landed it was a new PB.  So mission accomplished and then some.  
 

Back in the Spring I managed to get my PB largemouth out of a place I’ve fished my whole life, which made it more special. Plus my son Landen decided to man the trolling motor for the first time with me in the back of the boat.  If we hadn’t switched over 2 cast earlier might of never happened 🤷‍♂️  
My Son Landen also got his first deer this fall, something we have been trying for the past 3 years, so a few positives for 2020.  I hope 2021 is a better year for us all.  Happy New Year friends. God Bless.   Bret. 
 

update...  almost forgot my PB sauger 4pound 1oz from early November, that might be my hardest one to ever top!

   I was in the loop yesterday and got a couple texts on your trip. I was anticapiting this great post.

It was a fun day I wasn’t really expecting.  It’s raining this morning but I’m tempted to go again. Ha ha

@LittleRedFisherman good to see the positives in 2020. Some great fish and great memories. Your son is getting great exposure to the outdoors. Keep it up buddy! Like @BilletHead mentioned we were getting some updates on your successes throughout the day. I also noticed a couple of non-walleye in your keepers. A couple of nice saugers look like they came across the rail.

That's Awesome Buddy ! Super Happy for Your Epic day yesterday. I appreciate you taking your son hunting and fishing.
