Last week, Oliver Gilbertson dethroned Wally Dickinson of his title as having the biggest fish of the season. Oliver was spearing on Coal Lake near Browerville last Wednesday afternoon and was about to quit when a big lunker came drifting through the spearing hole. Oliver was so surprised, he didnāt have time to get shook and harpooned a 21 pound, four ounce northern. Needless to say there are some mighty envious folks around here.
