Cayuga Giant on Copper and Sutton

[FishingNYS]

Didn't have a working scale and I would normally through a fish like this back but I couldn't get it to quit bleeding.   It was hooked where the main gill blood vessel was. Bright orange meat. Caught it in 20fow on a Sutton fixed hook spoon.

Nice one! If you (or anyone else for that matter) ever need to buy more fixed hook Sutton's for pulling copper let me know. I have a bunch.
