I think it's great he caught this pig, that's a fish of a lifetime for many. All I got to say is he must be one hell of a caster with a LOT of line on his reel cause I know exactly where he took that pic...
I was there the first day they opened it in the late 70's!!!! lol As for a record fish there seems to be controversy on most record fish, what's else is new!!!!! Once the ramp is closed at DVL, someone should report how much more traffic is at the other lakes!!!!! It might surprise you!!!! You still haven't told us what blown up means in your world. lol
One, I'm not the one who said he caught it in a "NO FISHING Zone". I said I saw 3 boats and a gaggle of shore anglers fishing in said zone. Did you see this post of mine tucky?
Put your thinking cap on and try to figure out what that meant. As for what "blown up" means? Put the bottle down tucky, not my problem if you don't know what that means...I think it's great he caught this pig, that's a fish of a lifetime for many. All I got to say is he must be one hell of a caster with a LOT of line on his reel cause I know exactly where he took that pic...
Lol this is funny! Fish fight!
I was going to stay out of this, but what the hell. First of all, that is one hell of a fish. Secondly, the fish was caught in a marked no fishing. I have witnessed the guy that caught it several times in the area fishing the docks. I have also witnessed him being told to leave that area on several occasions. Once the Ranger leaves, he right back throwing at the docks. The fish was put in the live well and pics were taken later in the day at a different location.
That in no means takes away from the sheer size of the donkey fish he caught.
This is the same as breaking the lake speed limit during a tournament. Who cares!?
What about people who catch fish in closed ponds... (i.e. golf courses, private ranches, etc.)... A big fish is a big fish. He did not catch this fish in a fish tank. It is a wild fish and has seen it all. He caught it plain and simple.
The whole NO FISHING ZONE is an absolute joke! Many lakes have no marina fishing rules, but the employees many times will be seen fishing them, so what is the difference??
