Pulled a 32 x 30 inch buff out of Ray Hubbard on my trip to Dallas last February. Weighed 26 lbs. Next biggest was 30 x 30 and weighed 24 lbs.
Pic in my signature if the site still allows images from non secure hosted web sites.


PB common = 41 lbs
PB mirror = 22.5 lbs
PB buff = 26 lbs

Catch and release. The dream - to catch one of every species of Freshwater fish in our great state! If only I can resist Carp...

Buffs are one of my favorite fish to catch and I put this picture of the state catch and release black buffalo (36.25 inches and 26.60 pounds) on the back of my book, “The Art of Fishing for Records.â€

If you are interested in a fish that size, I would recommend chumming with range cubes, then using range cubes as bait. Here is a video of how I rig them.

If you are looking for tips on how to catch record and trophy fish, I recommend getting a copy of my book. There are lots of secrets in there on how to accomplish your goals.





Awesome fish! woot

Just this guy today and a few 10ish lb carp.

Amazing how different the carp bite vs the buffs.

I lost a big buffalo, would have got my record... But he popped off as soon as I got eyes on him.

I have to get back out there after them now that all this cold weather might have passed.

Friday's are the only days I am able to fish and every Friday for the last 5 or 6 weeks has been really poor weather.

Love seeing these big buff pics!

Give a man a fish he can eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and you can get rid of him for the entire weekend!
