I guess the jury is still out. They both claim 26 inchers on Metionga Lake last week.
They didn't ask me for a ruling but I will give one anyway.
The only way to settle this is to return again next year and try again. Tom brings his crew twice a year anyway but since they are all now retired, an extra "grudge "match may be required.
Nothing like a little head to head competition.

Nice walleye to say the least. Thanks for putting them back guys. Returning these breeders to the lake is one of the main reasons we see groups catching 1000 plus walleye in a week.
