Today's trophy tales

Jackie Johnston, Brooklyn Center • 28-inch walleye • Lake of the Woods

Overall Memorial Day weekend Johnston, above, caught her first big walleye 2 inches off the bottom on a jig and frozen minnow. She also had to throw back three others over 23 inches.

SIBLING RIVALRY

Max Koltnow of Eden Prairie faced a challenge keeping up with his older brother, Turner, on a bass fishing trip, but he nearly did when he pulled in this bass. Turner (right) had caught his even larger one, measuring 20½ inches, minutes earlier. Max, 7, and Turner, 9, were fishing with their grandfather on a metropolitan-area lake. Max's bass hit a Wacky Worm, and Turner's struck a Chigger Craw.
