A SAL and a LAKE RECORD? And let it go instead of weighing? Nah. Good fish, but probably around 10 pounds and 24".

Ummmmm, don't know about 10# Looks 12# easily to me, that's a big fish, thick, solid girth. We'll never know, I'd never take anything away for such a catch, congrats guys well done

Awesome fish! Fun little lake, but man does it ever get a ton of pressure. I fished it Monday morning and by 10am it was a boat/kayak show. Was also super awesome to see a bunch of dirty diapers, broken glass beer bottles, and assorted trash scattered all over the shore around the ramp area. Been a while since I had to step over a dirty diaper to get in my boat.

Go home at the end of your shift, no matter the cost!

Super catch, that's a nice fish. That little body of water has a few of those in it. To release it means someone else will maybe have the thrill of a life time, thanks.

Big heavy fish. I buy 13lbs, but I'm a bit skeptical on the 29". The original picture on that cooler could probably settle the debate. Given the girth she'd almost certainly weigh a lot more than 13 at 29". Regardless, a heck of a fish!

I recant my previous statement. I buy 13lbs+ and 29". Downloaded the original picture and did a quick review. She's legit in my opinion! Man, if that fish carried her girth she'd have been off the charts. Probably tack on 1-2 lbs on her pre-spawn as well!

That is such an awesome fish and if 29+" long, then TPWD estimator puts it at between 15.87 and 17.50#. And its not like it looks skinny by any means.
