as a bass guy i don't really fish for the golden suckers per say. but i was at falcon this past weekend and these things working the fresh flooded stuff were 3ft long. i was thinking if i only had a wheaties and big red jig. thought i would pass that along to the south tex guys.

i'm no expert, i can tell you a 7lb bass butv these things were maybe 25lbs plus easy. there were some 5 to 6ft alligator gar mingling amongst the carp. talk about jurasic fishing. the real big stuff was in big tiger and the west side of government cove.

the big gar would'nt take a spinnerbait, but the 3-4fters would attack but not stay attached.......dern it.

yea it was pretty cool seeing the big stuff moving around without a worry in the world.
