What a chunk of a flier, congrats. I went to one Bojangles when I was in SC on a trip with the baseball team when I was in high school. Too bad they aren't up here.

Fliers closest to established state and world records are more often caught in MAY prespawn but we often locate some trophy fliers in early Fall around the Albemarle like this one caught the first day of September last year....Looking forward to this bite again this fall.............

We also catch some good Fliers in extreme coastal Virginia Ben......mainly tidal waters but Lake Drummond in the Great Dismal Swamp is full of them......the ones pictured below were caught in Virginia waters......

I too catch them in various colors Ben depending on location.....they get very dark in the local tannic waters but a couple canals I fish also produce a more silver shade like the ones below....
