That's outstanding, nice catch. Congrats on the records. You sure set the bar high for us common folk with those fish.

Thanks Osborne Fishing, Trent 72, Kelly, MJM, Texas Multi Species, Rick and Jamie for the replies. It has been a pretty good fall and winter bite . Lots of BIG fish are wanting to play!

Nice fish Chuck. You have had one heck of a year. What type of water body have you caught your bigger fish this year? Also congrats on yet more records.

Thanks Curtis for the reply! The bite has slowed down a lot! I agree but only in the creeks. The river bite is another story. It's going pretty good!

Do you think the spring bite will be just as good as the winter bite?
