Heard a rumor...

Post by farmer floyd » July 23rd, 2005, 1:55 am

Was on the phone tonight with a friend of mine that said he saw the new state record brown. Said it was caught at Taney last weekend. Who ever caught it, supposedly caught it on 4 lb line and a little cleo. Anyone heard anything about this?

Lilley posted it up on the Cafe. The story sounds iffy, as posted. With the heat and generation, there have been some big Browns go belly up.

sounds fishy.

That fish looks like one slimey, bloated, rigamortis havin, been-dead-a-long-damtime mofo.
