That does not surprise me one bit. I have camped and the park and fished that lake. Got broke off on 10# line, before I discovered braid. I was told by park officials that the lake is stocked with SAL's. You can launch your boat but you cant start the big engine.

I just got back from Tyler State Park. I saw, and spoke with Brett Harris. It turns out that he bought the swimbait that he caught the 14 pounder with from me at Mack's!

Whoot!

What a great fish! She looked to be VERY healthy.

Congrats Brett!

Lake Tyler is not the same as Tyler State Park. Tyler State Park contains a 67 acre lake that is a couple of miles north of I-20 just off HWY 17 on the west side of 17.

Lake Tyler is on the other side of the City of Tyler



TFP




The state park is on Hwy 16 at Exit 562 off of I-20

I don't know about the rest of you Yahoos, but that picture should be on Next month's cover photo for TFF! That is just about a perfect photo of a great looking fish. Brett Harris not only did a terrrific job of catching that monster, but he knows how to take a good picture too! thumb thumb

That picture was taken by Larry Hodge, a staff journalist with TPWD at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center in Athens. Larry is both a great photographer and a heck of a writer. He contributes to the TPWD magazine as well as Texas Fish & Game among others.

The state park is on Hwy 16 14 at Exit 562 off of I-20


Highway 16 basically runs East & West through Red Springs, and into Lindale. Highway 14 basically runs North & South and runs through Sand Flat, and into Hawkins. Highway 17 runs North & South and runs through Grand Saline, and Alba. My mistake.

Tyler State Park Lake sent its second Budweiser ShareLunker and a new lake record to Athens Monday.
Actually, it's Tyler State Parks third SAL.

The 14.5-pound largemouth bass took a rainbow-trout imitating swim bait being worked in 3 feet of water by Tyler angler Brett Harris.
Brett's bass went 14 pounds, & 3 ounces.

What in the name of Saint Leibowitz is going on!?!?!?! TP&Ws SAL webpage lists Brett's bass as being 14.5 pounds. I talked to Brett just yesterday afternoon, and got it straight from him that his bass went 14 pounds 3 ounces. bang

I wonder if TP&W re-weighed her, and found that she was heavier than the BBQs scales showed???? I'll give Richard Ott a call tomorrow and find out what's going on.

I just got of the phone with the TP&W folks at Athens with the SAL program. Brett's fish went 14.5 pounds on their lab quality scales, and that is the offical weight of Brett's Big Girl.

I was confused because the scales at the BBQ stand at which the Big Girl was orginally weighed gave a reading of 14 pounds and 3 ounces, that however is not the official weight.

Again the OFFICIAL TP&W weight for Brett Harris' Big Girl is: 14.5 pounds (Fourteen, and one half pounds).

Brett caught this SAL on a Reaction Strike Poseion 6" Slow Fall swimbait that he got here at Mack's.

Not only is this fish a SAL but it is also a waterbody record for Tyler State Park, and the largest bass ever caught in Smith County. The previous record was caught in March of 2000, and weight about 13 and a third quarter pounds.

TFP


The Tyler Morning Telegraph interviewed Brett Harris and he stated that"he had only been fishing 20-minutes when he landed the big fish on a WATERMELON-colored Lizard in shallow water". He was fishing the banks for spawning fish but could not see the fish because of the choppy waves due to the 30-mile per hour gusting winds. Didn't mention anything about a Swimbait...
