Many years ago, my Dad and I saw a commotion in the back of Birch and found a monster alligator snapper tangled in a trotline.
We got it loose from multiple hooks and the monster followed us around like a lost puppy for a while.
It was 3+ foot across with a head larger than a Folgers can.
If any of y'all are going to the Classic in Tulsa, the Oklahoma Aquarium in Jenks has a couple on display. Crazy big prehistoric beasts.
