OMG guys!!! 21.5" x 16.25" girth set free to swim another day!!! Well everyone has their one grand screw up of their life and I may have had mine today!!! Anyway I hit the dam early this morn and had no luck so I moved down stream and made a cast and missed one, made another cast and caught a solid 17" spot made another cast and it was like I hooked a log!! Low and behold the biggest spot I had seen to date was on the end of my line!! I real her up and grab ahold of her!! I was excited as any one in the world could be!!! I get her in and admire her take all the measurements because I had yet to get batteries for my scales I got for Christmas. I figured on a solid 4lbs for a weight. Football didn't even describe this pig!! I still don't know what I was thinking but I felt letting her go was the best thing so of to the bank I go revive her good and she takes off. I got home and punched in the #'s on the weight calculator and it comes up 7.13,lbs. used a different one got, 6.06lbs, used another one got 6.25lbs!!!! At this point I am feeling sick to my stomach!!! I don't know what to say but enjoy the pics and I just hope that calculator was wrong!! Or make me believe that anyway!!! I am still in shock and sick!!! emoVomit All in all I unbelievably made 10 casts and caught 7 fish!!! Then nothing!!! 1-21.5", 1-17.75", 1-17", 2-15", and 2-12"!! This is the best and worst day I've had!!
