Took my daughter fishing the other afternoon and we lucked into handful of nice sized Redears. I didn't have a scale on me but I'm thinking a couple of them had to be pushing at least close to 1 1/2 lbs. I have never caught any that were that plump before.
No matter how old I get there is still something special about seeing a bobber getting pulled under. But even far better is watching your child's excitement when they have one on the end of their rod.
