Heck i would be happy to just pull one out of the small 1/4 pond I have.  I would think they would be cornered in there where I could get one, but have yet to see them.

 

Hope they are still alive.

One more note, these things will ruin you, I've caught them up to 12.5 inches and they blow bluegill away. I've become a shellcracker fisherman exclusively, I don't even suspend a cork anymore, on bottom baby.

That's a good lookin redear, I'm amazed at how big they get in that Savanahh River system. It must be the perfect ingredients for growing large shellcrackers. You're a lucky man Kelly, I'd pay you money to take me out fishing for those. You oughta think about shellcracker guiding...I'm serious.
