With the help of a good man on the net, we put this bruiser in the boat Monday while fishing the Columbia near the airport. A personal best Spring fish for me!

This beauty came out of the Columbia near the Port Co ramp. Pulling green label herring behind a big flasher plus 8 oz of lead on a slider, very slowly uphill. It made 5 real strong, heart pounding runs. The net man was the key to success. Most guys would have poked at that pig long before Phil did. He had great patience. So many things could have gone wrong, but it turned out very well!

Wow... nice fish.. dig you check for hoofed feet and an upturned snout? You may want to look a little closer, there's got to be some bacon in there somewhere.
