Sea Monster in The Hooch..!

[FlyDawg72]

DNR periodically does a population count in The Chattahoochee by shocking the River which temporarily disables the fish so they can tally the fish, and make sure all is well.

Check out the MONSTER they recently chocked up from the depths...

Good grief! Where was that and how much did it weigh? I'd LOVE to hook into that on my kayak!

Unfortunately, DNR doesn't disclose WHERE these bad boys are located... I have seen similar pictures of this size fish a couple times before, but they're always really vague about when and where it's being done.

I know but they normally tell the general section. That hook jaw has been in there a loooong time. Great color. He looks a little underfed but I guess when you're that big it takes a LOT to get fat.

Yea that jaw was throwing me off
