So I was down at the 18th hole water hazard on the golf course I live on and happened to pull this out after 4-5 mins of fighting him through the weeds.
The thing weighed 6lbs on the dot. Beautiful fish. I think it was a spawning female getting ready to lay down her eggs.
The thing literally could touch either end of the cooler when she was laying straight. 23" total length and 14.5" around the widest part of her.
This picture is of my entire fist in her mouth. (Note I did not jam my hand in there, there was still more room!)
Well just was excited and wanted to share this with you guys. Enjoy!
Edit: I did release her. I did not keep her. And she swan away just fine! I hope to catch her or her offspring again.
