North Maple Rag

I've written before about my fear of big fish, specifically big catfish. Then today, while catching up on South Dakota Magazine's blog, I learned that my own Lake Kampeska (just a couple miles from my house) was once home to a lake monster. They think it was a lake sturgeon -- a species of fish that can grow to 1600 pounds. I grew up swimming in that lake! Ew. Never again.
