[FishNews]

<br /> I'm not usually one to advertise my fishing success, but I felt that I had a responsibility to report this 24" (length) x 18.5" (girth) behemoth bucketmouth that I caught (and released) at Center Hill this past Monday (we estimated the weight at ~8.5 or 9 lbs).<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I have been making a habit of going fishing at Center Hill after work; the fishing has generally been pretty slow this spring, but the big fish are definitely fattening up for the spawn.  Most of my recent luck has been during the 'magic hour' before dark. <br /> <br />-Caster <br />
