I'm an ole' Saltwater fisherman myself. I see a lot of folks on this site are mainly freshwater anglers. The only thing I know about freshwater is..I drink it and take a bath in it !!
I went to see a weigh-in at West Lake Tawakoni about 4 years ago in Feb. or March, I forget. It was that Cabela's King Kat event. I saw some hefty cats brought in. I'm sure these were released later. But, you guys and gals that catch the BIG Cats, what do you do with yours? I know with these big Bull Reds etc., most folks don't keep them bc the smaller slot Reds are better for the table. Tell me about your catches?

Rub their fat belly and turn em loose.
