Me and the Wife were putting around the upper end of Old Hickory Lake and marked a TON of Big Fish. We shot over to a cove and picked up 1 Gizzard Shad. I put in on the hook and drifted it through the pile. As soon as I got the sentence "we're on top of them right now" out of my mouth. BAM! It Was On....
I have Video also...

Thank you sir. It easily pegged out my 50lb scale. After curling it several times for the photos, I was winded! Sucker was Heaaaa-vy! :)

That is a dandy, Adrian.
With those arms curling a 50 lb fish should be easier than me curling a 32 oz beet.

I don't have a flat head... it's shaped more like a snow cone!

Great fish, you seem to stumble upon those pretty often.

Must be somthin y'all hillbillies do 'round here.
Most of us just curl 40 oz beers.

He Pulled HARD! I told my wife it was Huge. With my new rig I managed to winch him up in less than 5 minutes. 80lb Braid for the Win :)
