miller Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 i nailed this lil fella on the 8th and i was sure suprised when i pulled him out. anyone else ever get any like this? the dark coloration was only on one side of the face, the whole other side of the fish was the lighter tone. he definatly seemed healthy as he put up a pretty good fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave524 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Pretty obvious, it's a male and only half spent, so only half still in spawning colours put him back so he can complete his job and he will turn all chrome and drop back to the lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryC Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Hey, nice to see my personal bait man on OFC. I saw this fish first hand, and it was strange indeed. Why don't you tell everyone about the huge one you lost right after that one. Nice Browns on the other post as well. Cheers, Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
