Hard for me to believe a fish released immediately or after some pics would die anyway whether donated or not. That means most big fish caught over 8lbs would be dying on any lake. Deep fish routinely get caught in winter on many lakes. The stress of the fish in the livewell, holding tank for hours, lack of fizzing, all adds up. Thats because they wouldn't, they are stressed not being in their natural environement and thats what leads to them dying at Athens not the hole you punched in their lip.

I just saw a caravan of 10 boats with Louisiana Plates headed west on I20. They were carrying lots of ice chests.

This as all about money at this point. How much sponsor money would TPWD lose if they shelved the program.Texas has been stocking pure Florida’s since the mid 70’s and SAL started in 1986. ALL OF THE GIANTS ARE PURE FLORIDA STRAIN BASS AND WILL SPAWN WITH PURE FLORIDA STRAIN BASS IN THE LAKE....50 years of stocking and 35 years of science experiments is enough. Of course I’m not saying TPWD should stop any stocking but this seems counterproductive at this point....rinse and repeat.

WHHAAAATTTT????
Throwing shade at TPWD???? Don't you know the first rule at TFF?? 1. Thou shalt not say bad things about TPWD.
Everyone knows that there wouldn't be any bass in Texas if it weren't for TPWD.
Just believe the hype. Just believe that Share Lunker is most awesome program ever invented. It's so awesome that when you look at the glossy pictures, you wont dare to ask any questions.
Don't pay any attention to facts.
You know, facts like - MOST of your fishing license dollars and boat registration dollars are used to: Do boarder patrol work. Helicopter surveys on private high fences properties. Genetic and disease analysis for private deer breeders. Fish and Game officers doing the jobs of municipal LEOs. on and on.
Share Lunker . . . "Look!! an eagle".

A kick in the nads will get ya’ every time! If these fish come back as having no DNA to the original SAL fry, then this is a massive black eye to the kill a lunker program. It will be proof that someone, whomever is paying for this program, is just wasting money. I don’t know if it’s Toyota or TPWD. I’m glad it’s not my home lake though!

What out 4 that we’re caught year before last 2 died?Let Mother Nature do that deal!Sal puts some good genetics back!! But they were already there. Florida largemouth program should get the credit for the fish being the way theyare! People would probably freak out if they knew the truth about 10 pound plus fish being taken out of Ivie to be put in other West Texas Lakes!
