[Bufflehead]

A dandy fish!

 all though,  I don't agree with the leaving a tip up out unattended..thats basically a set line..not too much challenge to that

What a monster walleye!  How big was the whole to get that fish thru?  :)

Bufflehead is right,  that fish would be illegal in MN, where it is against the law to leave lines unattended .  Regardless, nice FISH!  It would have really fun to catch a fish like that in open water on Rod & Reel
