Customer Catch Story: Chris Gafford

“It was a beautiful day with a little wind and great temps so I bailed out of work a little early and hauled to the lake, expecting to catch more 1 or 2 pounders like usual. I had no idea that an hour or so of hammering the shallows with a square bill would land me the fish of a lifetime. Shoot, I had no idea that this tiny 1,500 acre lake I was fishing even had monsters to catch. I was wrong. She was beautiful and released back to make more giant babies.”
