My son caught this 25lb buffalo over the weekend. Got lucky with his little Zebco 33. Looked like it was full of eggs. Released alive and well. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/05/full-4769-51004-fisher_and_buffalo_2_2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/05/full-4769-51005-fisher_and_buffalo.jpg)

Thanks but it almost wasn't a fair...to the fish. The little creek behind our house is only 4-5 feet deep with a relatively smooth bottom. Fish didn't have a chance to make deep runs but it definitely put the reel's drag through the motions. It was worth the show and my son is pretty pumped about it.

Awesome!
Nothing beats catching a fish like that for a kid.
The smile says it all.
Doing that on a zebco is quite an achievement,

I can hear the drag going out now! Nice
PB flathead 34.5 lbs - I know it's small but it was still the record for Lake Travis when I caught it!
PB Blue 58.5 lbs jugline 43.5 lbs on R&R which was the other Lake Travis record when caught.
