Re: Northwest River adventure week.
Is this the Northwest River in NC? If so, there are some big bowfin in there but you would already know that.
Time to go fishin' again!

Re: Northwest River adventure week.
The largest bowfin ever caught was reeled in by Robert L. Harmon on January 29, 1980, in South Carolina. It weighed a whopping 21 lbs. 8 oz!
Northwest has some 17 lbers for sure. And LGMouth to 10 lb...
5 years ago we caught over 60 LGMouth and 12 bowfin in one day. We fished 6 days and got skunked twice. But we figured it out by the 4 day.

Re: Northwest River adventure week.
Not sure I would even want to hook a 17lb bowfin. That would be a terrifying fight.
