True giant! Must have been the last fish in Harris break , hard to catch em on that lake few and far between!
I have not fished it much but ones I've caught there are good fish. I only hope to catch one that big one day.
Man I cant wait to catch a slab like that!
D10, it is a black,,female. That fish is a game changer! Wow! Thanks for sharing!
That is the fish of a lifetime. I wonder how old that fish is?
Just a big ole fish, no long arm needed. Awesome.
I think that I could.count 7 or 8 dorsal spines, which is a black crappie and it more than likely is a female at that weight. It could have been a male though.Quote:

Especially if the fish was caught in one of lakes in my district, D-10 (Cleburne, VanBurren, Conway, Faulkner, White, or Perry counties). I can even remove one after it is frozen, when the taxidermists starts to work with the fish.Quote:
