First PIG of the year!

[chickenhawk]

Wednesday morning went 4 for 5 water was really low and clear which made fishing tough, the ones in the main holes weren't as active as they could see you but I landed one at first light, so I moved downstream and fished under a tree and hooked into 4 there and this big male was the last to come out of there. I figure he weighed around 10 pounds he was really fat but the pic don't show it that well.

 

That is the tree I hooked him under in the top left and man what a bleep! it was to get him to come out from under there he musta went under there 6 or 7 times and each time I miraculously pulled him out. Definately a fight to remember
