"Golden Eye" Southern VT/NH

Post by The River Rat »

It's been some time since I've been active on LCU so with that I want to send out my belated condolences to Matt "Fishy 1's" family and close friends. What a great sportsman, he'll be remembered for "shore". I figured I'd share a couple recent pics of some southern twin state green gold, literally!!!! Both caught fishing with John Anderson (Controlled Chaos)on a couple of our many "Eye" adventures.

Out of the thousands, likely 10 thousand eyes caught over the last 30 years I say this fish is by far the most gold, colors really popped on her. Caught around a 7- 8# Blue pigmented eye a few years back that was really intense also.
