So I did a Google search for "Lake Havasu redear" tonight and one of the first images it gave me was this one....

That redear is "HUGE". I want one of those pigs. Plan on doing a Havasu trip in 2015. I believe he released it so it's still growing.

That's spooky......

JJ - they don't release 2 or 3 lb fish...... if you do , you don't eat. They pack up like Dorados - nothing to see a couple of big fish swimming with your hooked fish - in the crystal clear water.

What a fish...Hey QK, you sure you didn't google the most wanted at the post office?

I've been seeing some of the pics of the fish being caught out of Lake Havasu in the past few years. I need a really big bowl under my chin to catch all the drool.....

I need to put a trip to Lake Havasu on my Bucket List......

Put it on the top Allen.

I think you have a better chance at catching 3lb Redear at Havasu then you have at catching a 3lb BG Richmond pond. And the Northern & Hybrid Bluegill aren't minnows......

Be a great place for a Jigcraft rendezvous. Think Havasu Springs would be good, I haven't been there (yet). Buddy Keith says it's a great place.

Sign me up. Definitely have to fish it in 2015. March or April is good for me.

I don't have a Bucket List, yet. Still kind of young for that; I'm only 41. I do have a few fishing goals that I would like to accomplish. A 5 lbs Redear is on that list, preferably on my 4wt. So is a 10 lbs or better Striper on my 8wt. A 20 lbs Flathead Cat would be nice as well.

I could do the last two at my favorite wade-fishing hole. AND, I could do it with jigs. I've seen a guy pull out a 30- and a 17-lbs Flathead out of there on 1/2 oz ball jigs, painted chartreuse, with a chartreuse grub.

Zebra Mussels are starting to get bad in that same hole. I can't remember if I've caught a Redear Sunnie there or not. Longears, Greenies, and Bluegills, yes. Zebes are becoming established in most of the bigger lakes as well. Those should have Redears in them. Who knows? 5 - 10 years from now, there we may start seeing some BIG Redears here in Okieland......

Zac when I through with all this schooling stuff I will need a graduation fishing trip. I figure 2 days driving each way and 3-4 days fishing might be perfect
