Why, then, when Anna hooked this monster northern pike one October morning on Lake Pepin, did she have to endure relentless grilling from certain family members, especially those who'd never caught a fish like this? Witnesses to the catch included Mavis and Joe, who sat on the fish to hold it down till they could reach shore. Anna was using a Rapala chartreuse No. 5 shadrap. This is most certainly true!"
