Huge! Just caught a new personal best and possible Ontario or Canadian record northern hog sucker! 15 and 1/2 in, 1 lb 12 oz! Just sent my photos to the m&r to see what they say. It's hard to find any information about this fish because it doesn't usually bite and they don't keep many records. I saw that they have a record listed for Pennsylvania at the same weight as mine for the IGFA. I found some more information, it actually might be a record for Ontario at least. Check the bottom of the last picture. Says 38 cm and 1.5 lb is the record. Mine is slightly bigger! Sight fished from the bank with a worm, it seems to be ready to spawn. I released it right away, I think it's full of eggs and ready to pop. I realized to get an official record you have to get it verified but I didn't want to take the fish away from the water. If it doesn't count that's okay!
