[quote brookieguy1][quote wolfs4evr]I've caught 3 of them that size and bigger on Lake Mead on hook/line. All on crankbaits too. I think they are slapping at it being territorial verse actually striking it/looking for a meal. If I remember right at least 2 of the 3 big ones I hooked were snagged and the 3rd had part of a treble in his mouth.
STINK... I washed my hands over and over and over trying to get that off me after catching it, unhooking it, taking pics, etc After the first I learned my lesson big time gagging over the smell. Another one has never made it over the side of my boat. I reach out with one set of pliers to grab him by the lips and use another set to get my lure back.
I will have to say this... They fight like no other and I swear can clear 6+ feet of air when hooked/fighting. Impressive![/quote]So they are basically like Strawberry Cutts, other than they fight hard?[
