    awesome cuz. where are you fishing at? looks like orange lake. You sure that was a gill though? looks like a shellcracker, i cant see the gill plate to look for the red but the stripes on the sides and overall look is more like a shellcracker, gills are normally rounder when they are that big. Hope i get a mess of em this afternoon, im fixing to leave and the only way i will release them that size is if its in hot grease!
