Anyone who has tried to land a 40”+ northern from land knows the challenge. Hooked into this one in between two piers while standing on rocks. The fight was so memorable but netting the fish without hurting it was probably the hardest part. It was such a beautiful specimen that special care was a must. Luckily there was someone who was able to capture a photo for me. 90% of my catches do not get proper imaging seeing as capturing them. myself is difficult. Mepps inline spinners will always be my favorite and highest producing lure without a doubt.
