Looks like a tail reflection just under the st in store ?

I have caught some big glue gills to 1 3/4 pounds, but nothing even close to that thing.

Also saw Alan Warren last weekend pushing some place in Teas I think that is a pay to fish and catch and release for bass, blue gills and crappie and was very impressed seeing some 2 pound + gills, but the place is jut to costly and all release? They didn't have anything like this monster though.

It was impressive seeing some people catching the giant gills, now seeing this one there were not near as impressive.

If somebody ask me to inspect the photo whether or not it's real, my verdict is it's not real.. de

First, even he stretch his elbow, his body size, and hands size seem a little out of proportion even given the benefit of doubt that camera can do some tricks.

second, top fin, bottom fin, tail area doesn't seem to fit in well with the background, Looks somewhat artificial. magnify the picture, It seems there's discrepancy in pixilation between crappie and the rest of the background. Although sometimes lighting can cause that...

3rd, if that's the fat guy passing by, his portion of body is clearly in-between the camera man and the target. Where is he in the photo other than the reflection?


I'ain't no pro, and i am bored. popcorn If someone put a link on a news or magazine of this catch or whatever, then, i'll change my verdict.. hammer
