    What a fish! Kind of shaped like some big red ear I use to catch when I was a kid. Nice and round.
    I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're goin' and hook up with them later.

    It's still the new State Record, but is categorized as being caught in a pond. Seems that a pond crappie gets less attention, but nonetheless it's top fish now!
