My friend Rick Arnold put a client on to this 35 inch, 18 lb fish. It is the biggest one I have heard of being caught (with proof) in the few years I have been chasing them. My brother got a 15 1/2 lb, 4 years ago.

Wow!!! What a hog. Beats my 13.5 from 2 years ago. What day did Rick's client get that? I was there today and only managed 2 shakers for 3 poles. Lost a couple more.

Wow, Thats the one I've been after for years. I wonder if that is the one that spawned the reports of a state record. Nice Job to all involved with both fish.

what did you do with it?
The 18 was kept for a mount. My brothers fish was released and swam away strong. It kind of looks as if he is man-handling the fish, but it had just flopped and he got slimed!
