    X2 I caught one about that size last year on the Spring River using a Rooster Tail. I just threw it back. Had no idea what it was until later. Probably wasn't a record, but it may have been a trophy. I guess it pays to be your homework.

    Very nice! He probably met my buddy John Stein (biologist) to weigh the fish. Where was it caught?

    He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

    Congratulations Dan! Last year my wife and I were crappie fishing the white river near our home in Batesville when I caught one of those. I'd never seen one before and couldn't figure out what it was. So I took a picture and because it wasn't a crappie I threw it back. Got home and looked it up on the internet and saw that it was an Ozark Bass and that the world record was around a pound. We sat there with this stunned stupid looks on our faces because the one I threw back was pushing every bit of a pound. I've often thought of going back and see if I could catch him again but I'll wait, he's probably got to get bigger now that we have a new king on the throne. Good job for knowing your fish!

    I'm with RCC, I would have called it a goggle eye or rice slick. We don't have them, to my knowledge, on the East central side of the state.
    Tell'em I'll be there.

    I think a goggle eye has some red in it's eyes doesn't it? It sure does look like one though. Congrats
