Of the few massive fish I have heard being caught there, the two biggest were: 1) off the bank during generation with a rooster tail and like 6lb test. That fish was over 18lbs. 2) was on a fly rod and out of a boat fishing shad pattern during generation. That fish was I believe around the same mark if not a little bigger.
Both were browns but there are some stud rainbows in there as well.
I have been told those really big fish run the schools of gizzard shad during generation just like a striper would. That is a completely different ball game all togther that the avg weekend angler up there never is equipped to play.
