I also heard the Tri City Park lake record was shattered today as well. The toad weighed in at 3.65 lbs and measured a stout 17 1/2 inches.

Dan,
Not a surprise! You are one of the best human beings I know! A well deserved reward for a veteran, friend and great fisherman. Thanks for being such a great inspiration to us all.

Chug Bug weighs about 1/3 oz, maybe a 4 power rod with 10 to 12 lb line. Congratulations Dan on your bass of a lifetime.
