That fish was one of only 9 we took home, it was 15". We talked about the next time we can hit maybe a good over cast day we may break out the jig poles and try for a little stump to stump. There is a Geezer couple, not on CC, that fish about as much as we do but the use minnows and they had 5 when we had 1 and they had close to 20 when we had 5, don't know what size they were keeping but I think if it had a few inches of meat between the head and tail they were keeping them, don't know for sure. Best one we had was a 15". We did keep 2 Carol fish, my wife likes the small 10" fish fried crispy. To her the best is the little v shaped belly piece.
