I was astonished when I filleted a 16-inch walleye and out poured nine minnow heads, which the fish had managed to pluck from my jigging spoon.
I finally caught the walleye on the 10th try. I think this thievery was going on most of the morning, because the hit was always soft, but eventually I won. Somehow, some way, the walleye had a special ability to steal bait.
