Does anyone else remember that fabled night at Council Horseshoe when I walked my prized catch all the way up the lake on a stringer and displayed it for the council? My brother, Jeff, who was a 14'er that year (1976 or was it 1977?) is in the photo with me. I caught it on my night off (I was a counselor that year) at A-Lake and kept it alive in my car the whole way back up that very, very bumpy road. We tried to keep it alive and revive it so we could release it into Little Horseshoe Lake, but, alas, she died. So, Merc had her stuffed and mounted above the Mess Hall door. He said she was 6 lbs.
The photo is in the photo gallery "fish" section.
