I caught this Beauty on Choke Canyon this past Thursday afternoon about 6:45pm, Caught on a Stanley Wedge spinnerbait White/Chartreuse/Red Flake, In about 5 foot of water in Grass. She was 24 1/2 inches long and 16 inches in girth. Our Scale said 9lbs even. I have been tryin for 10 lbs and was a little dissapointed but still a Great Fish and a Day I wont soon forget.

Are you crazy, man? You are messing with some bad karma saying you "were a little disappointed"! The fishing Gods frown upon that sort of thing! LOL
Congrats on the hawg!

Alton- Only reason I say I was dissapointed was we didnt have a scale in the boat so it was about two hours before we weighed her and the whole time my partner was saying that he was sure she was just over ten, so I was all hyped up and then we got the scales she was 9.0lb.....

great fish, I can relate also! Have had several fish that I swore went over ten, but one was 8.94 and then 9.2. Finally, last year got one in the boat that went 10.2. It will come, just keep fishing!

hey man...I dont know what kinda scales you were using but I have the Berkley digital scales and caught a 10.04 at the Skeeter tourney that went 9.50 on my scales...so it could be a ten pounder!! It was just a hair over 24 inches too....Either way, nice fish!
