Zack Kocovsky and his girlfriend Kelly Smeets had fairly the shock final Wednesday when fishing the Fox River.
They caught a 44-inch muskie on a crappie minnow to earn Fish of the Week.
“Positively shocked each of us,” Kocovsky messaged.
Requested what they was fishing for, he stated, “Actually something.”
Love that reply, particularly after they caught one thing completely surprising.
FOTW, the celebration of huge fish and their tales (the tales matter) round Chicago fishing, runs Wednesdays within the paper Solar-Occasions.
