Word on the street is they tried to keep it alive in the sink until they could weigh it at cabelas when they opened in the morning. How dumb can you be.

It happens more than you think just not everyone posts about it Happens a ton at my local small lake. Have watched crappie fisherman pull them off brush piles at certain times of year and everyone in their boat keep their over. Within the law - but still pretty ignorant IMO. They don't bass fish - so it doesn't affect them - therefore they don't care. Have raised the issue with TPWD. We'll see if they do anything. Hell watched one of them that was easily a real SAL get put on a stringer last Friday.

I like catch and release too but hey legal means and methods it is their choice completely. Very nice fish, I hope I can catch one that big some day! BTW, It is OK, fish are here for us to use and eat. Gen 1:28-30
See you on the lake and have a great day!

BTW, It is OK, fish are here for us to use and eat. Gen 1:28-30 Agreed. Its legal and its within their right to do as they please. I would C and R but if the lucky angler chose not to more power to him. Nice fish!

Probably caught it catfishing haha. I met a guy on toledo last year that only fished for catfish with juglines. He was releasing a 9+ bass near his dock and told me he catches a lot of big bass on jugs with live perch out in the lake. Evidently he thought it was illegal to keep bass off jug lines. I agreed with him and told him I thought it was too haha
Shows you how much I care about catfishing haha

A fishing line with five or less hooks tied to a free-floating device. May be used to take NONGAME fish, channel catfish, blue catfish and flathead catfish only.
