Prize catches at Grand Lake
Submitted Photo

Bruce Whaley Jr., Huber Heights, landed this monster northern pike on Tuesday just below the West Bank spillway on Beaver Creek while fishing for saugeye. The fish hit on a one-eighth ounce green jighead with a twister tail attached to a 6-pound test line. He had no scale or tape measure with him, so he did not know the size of the fish. Whaley said his friend Jason Woods of Bellbrook helped him land the fish, which they released.
