Something kind of cool to share. This was back in February, I hooked into a giant little fish on Fayette. Caught this bluegill on a lipless crankbait. This little guy had 2 hooks in his mouth....he wanted that bait lol. Anyway my buddy kept saying it was crazy big and had to be a record. So he looks it up and come to find out it is. He stayed on my hiney all morning to get it certified. Decided to go get it certified when I got back to Houston area. Weight 1.71lbs Length 10 3/4 inches Girth 14 3/4 Got my certificates in the mail and will be in the Texas Parks and Wildlife record books till someone beats it. Pretty cool little ordeal And of coarse I caught a lake record on one of my Poor Boy Customs rods lol

Good grief ! It looks like a native bluegill too. Fayette continues to amaze with her perch treasures. Congrats katjim !!
