The catch of a lifetime…so far

Hi, my name is Nevin Vosinek, I am 12 years old and I caught the biggest fish of my life. I wanted to share the story because I think it’s a rare catch. The fish was a giant northern pike and it measured 50 inches long and it weighed 15 pounds. The teeth were huge and it was a challenge taking it off.
It was just a normal day of fishing on Lake Memphremagog until this fish hit my line. I reeled in the fish from a canoe, using 6 lb line with no leader and a lure (I cannot share its name).
While I am out of school, I was lucky enough to catch this beautiful fish. We ended up releasing it and hope somebody else can one day experience the fight that I did.
Maybe this is a sign of good things to come.
