Oh Hell ! Out here we call that a little "Guppy" . I've never caught a Guppy that big ,but some day
.Actually I do have "Florida Strain" Large mouth Bass in my private lake . The biggest we caught so far is about 12 pounds that my daughter pulled in . I don't fish much anymore but the kids love it .
WE have one rule : Put them back for the next kid to catch .
I seen grown men damn near start cryin when I told them to release the big ole girls . They always say " Mister ... you don't understand ... This is the biggest fish I ever caught ! "
Ahhhhh .... It warms my heart to break theirs

Yea Al, it's still my lifelong mission to catch a 10+ pounder. I've been close a couple of times but still haven't got it. I hire a guide on Lake Fork a couple of times a year just to even the odds a little bit but me and that monster still haven't been at the same place at the same time. Like you, I always release them but if I ever catch Moby Dick, I may have to sit down and think about it for a while. The bass in our lake at the farm are running about 4 to 6 pounds now. I hope I can live long enough for them to get to "keeper" size.

When I was about 9yrs. I was with Daddy on the boat pulling trout lines. All of a sudden he was yelling for me to bring him the net from the back of the boat. We were in a 16 foot commercial catfish boat. The head of the catfish was at the front where Daddy was pulling and the tail splashed water on me in the back. We lost it....there was no way. That's Okeechobee fresh water catfish.

I have understood you have to "thin them out" some to let the larger ones keep getting bigger.
But yea, I am hoping to be able to dig a hole big enough to raise some 'monsters' in my self, one day.
