Thanks for all the kind words. Yes, this is a true giant of the freshwater sunfish world.
It didn't have much spawn in it, mostly crayfish and quagga clams. I wonder if they can get any bigger :)

This is an incredible fish and nobody can create a masterpiece like Tim can……He did a flier for me several years ago and I’ve put it on display at a couple local tackle shops and it receives incredible reviews….that’s the fish and more importantly the craftsmanship……..another incredible keepsake Tim, thanks for sharing…..
