Ol Captain Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) Ladies and Gentlemen: I caught this sure to be award winning fish several years ago in the Chattahoochee ("The Hooch") River south of Downtown Atlanta. It weighed 9 lbs even and for me it was a very exciting catch!!! Come see us! Edited July 18, 2011 by Ol Captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
