My biggest bluegill was 1.8 lbs out of Lake O The Pines in east Texas. I caught it on a hard-bodied fly-rod popper from K-Mart. I think it was red.

My biggest 'brim' type fish was a 2-1/2 lb. rock bass, caught in Turkey Creek, near Sweetwater, Tn. It attacked my Pheasant-Tail Nympth with total abandon.

Semper Fi!
