A Pasquotank Bruiser.....1 Pound 5 Ounces and Just over 10"

I took the time to get a quick weight on this guy before release.....looked heavier but it tied the best of 2013 for me....caught another one that was 21 ounces on May 1st....both on the Pasquotank......This fish was almost 9" tall......a beauty released....

I wish I had a big 500 gallon aquarium to put this gill in.......just a stunning fish....awesome dynamics....real clean hook set so the release was flawless......he fired off nicely.......

This fish felt like other 2 pound class gills that I have caught but only 21 ounces.....got the kinks out of my line for sure.....what a month it has been.......
