GEEZ that's a big shad.
I want the slab that's chasing that shad!!
It lacks the prestige of other, more "desirable" species, but I s'pose a record is a record.
Don't see MY name in that book anywhere. I did hook into a monster willow one time, though.
blue cat candy :cheers2
I bet it Stunk!!!!
Joedog, you know that once the dew is dry on the branches, the fish go ahead and drop back down into the water.
Dangit. If they allowed cast nets id have a chance :)
Shad shouldnt attack grubs so he probably snagged it?
I guessing you don't get that thing mounted?
I'd mount it, on a 10/0 hook!Quote:

That's the second one I've ever actually caught.
Funny you say that because it really can't, a replica has to be made.
The replica then goes to Bass Pro in Springfield, Mo
Congrats on the MO State record. & WELCOME to the site.Quote:

Lol, if I was to farm raise a fish for a State record... It wouldn't be a giz.
It was from an old coal mining strip pit from the 40's.
