Been thinking about this one for weeks.
Think it's out there somewhere in the TFF?
The incredibly fast growth rates could make it possible. As do the forage, acreage, and habitat. But the correspondingly fast life span of these fish might not.
But makes me wonder.
A kid in Boulder Junction caught and kept a near 9-pounder for some bait shop contest last summer, so a smallmouth of epic proportions can probably be just about anywhere within a 50 mile radius.
Can't wait to try the quest again till 2 weeks from now.
