The SD lakes are pumping them out hard this year so far. Lower Otay produced a good one a couple weeks back. My bet is on DVL giving up the next WR Right here^^^ that is where the next world record will come from!!! I miss that lake!

I have seen one of Mikey E's prototype glide baits and it looks awesome. He didn't say how much $$$.

It's one of those fish that is so damn big it looks fake. Congrats to the guy. . .I can't even imagine what one of those tanks feels like at the end of your line. 1+

The California lakes are coming alive. Heard they are on fire at Clear Lake, catching 30 pounds there right now is no big deal. Must be nice!

Greg is a die hard swimbait angler who consistently produces big fish. He fishes with his buddy Ryan Block who also hung a 16lb swimbait monster last year. True trophy hunters. Congrats to Greg, I am sure there will be more to come!

That picture just looks stupid by the way he's holding it in comparison with his body that fish should weigh at least 175 pounds. Still an awesome fish !

I did a quick check and the last reported/documented fish caught in Texas larger than this one was 17 years ago.

That's a humbling picture. Makes you realize that no matter how big of a fish you can catch there is always somebody out there catching one bigger. Congrats to that guy. I would like to fish California someday but that's a tough deal for a Texas guy just getting out there and then I think things are different there, probably hard to adjust to without experience. Looks like a boat rental only lake from the pic??- probably open only certain hours/days. Gotta watch the trout stocking I would think as well. Lots of different variables and I believe the competition is high there as well among people trying to catch big ones. Idk, but great fish anyway.
