I saw a picture of a fish [hold your breath]44" and released taken from the trophy section on Watauga at night this summer on a jerkbait. It was legitimate...it was shown to me by a good friend. It's nice to know that fish like that can be produced by our rivers...I"m sure there's one approaching 40" in the Caney somewhere.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735828315391307933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32835299.post-1542529893709828062010-01-05T13:33:00.944-06:002010-01-05T13:33:00.944-06:00Cory, I understand what you are saying but you hav...Cory, I understand what you are saying but you have to consider the river this fish was caught on. Browns are not as common in the first place, much less fish of this size...

I was expecting something a bit bigger to make those headlines. My buddy and I have gotten 3 over 27" on the Caney this year and we haven't really fished it that much. Lots of fish in the 22-26" range.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735828315391307933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32835299.post-62020007970793314362009-12-21T16:00:30.609-06:002009-12-21T16:00:30.609-06:00David, I'm there...just let me know when.

I was planning to fish that area on the way back from Oregon this past October except for the driving rain (so hard, fast windshield wipers wouldn't work) and wind blowing 30 ot 40 mph. Damn near blew us off the road. Maybe next Summer. <br /><br />MarkMark Kautzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03802544198629446327noreply@blogger.com
