WOW what a Gill!

Check out this new record that I found on the International Game Fish Association site. And we think that a 2.5 lb crappie is a slab. This is a slab!

"Fly-fishing 2 kg (4 lb) class tippet, on an Auburn, Ala., USA lake, George P. Mann, of nearby Opelika, landed a bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) on April 15 after an eight minute fight. Caught on a Grab-a-Holt fly the slab weighed 1.08 kg (2 lb 6 oz). He’s hoping to beat the current IGFA record of 2 lb caught June 2001, in Ligonier, Pennsylvania, USA."

Thats a nice one.

WOW, what a Bluegill :eek::eek::eek:. If I can catch one as big as my hand I'm happy.

Bluegill

DANG, NOW THATS A GILL !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any idea how long that gill was ?

Id like to have one of those for dinner.

That is a MONSTER gill!!!!!!!!

What a beauty!!! With the rarity of the one pounders, that is amazing. :eek:Congradts to the skilled angler:cool:. Mike

That is one nice gill! And to be caught on a fly rod makes it that much better.

That's a fish, great bluegill, man, that's more than a slab, it's a meal by itself.

SWEEEEEEEETTTTTTT!! That's one big gill!!!!!!
