  • Caught her tonight on Alvarado

    Caught this hog tonight on Alvarado and won the working mans tournament. My personal best, she weighed in at 9.54.

        Thanks, we tried for 30 minutes to get her goin. She was still alive but would never take off. Me and 5 other guys tried to get some oxygen in her, she would swim about 15 ft then just belly up. I was SO torn. I'm 100% catch and release. I wanted someone else to catch her in the spring when she was 13lbs but she would never go. I didn't want some joker coming and catching her in their cast nets since there were a few folks waiting for us to leave with nets in hand. So I just brought her with me and I'm going to the taxidermy in the morn. Believe me I was upset I couldn't let her go.
