What a treat to hold the biggest redhorse of my life. Even a bigger thrill when I first saw that thing come up to the surface of the water, it's been a while since a fish had my knees shaking!
Guys I'm kind of bummed, thought we got a measurement at the time... but I guess we failed to do that with all the excitement. That is one long fish, even for it's weight. Heck of a day, Phil also caught a 7 lb. 15 oz. specimen.
Thanks guys, I wish everyone could have been there to see that fish in person - and to Corey's point I wish those who need need to acquire more appreciation could have been there to experience a true gem of nature and an incredible angling experience.
Phil, I hereby grant you the Golden Fish Award for this awesome catch. It shows up on your bio page and links to the notable catch entry. Congrats again!

Shots like that are what will turn redhorse into a protected gamefish.
Beautiful Redhorse
That is a lovely fish showing classic Greater features. Looks to be in good condition too, barely a scratch on her.
