Took in a bass to mount once from a small local lake that did not have bass tournaments. It had a rock in it's digestive tract that was not only blocking it, but it was growing tissue around it.
Is it possible this fish struck and swallowed a rock? I know musky have been known to do it.
Cecil,
I'd say just about anything is possible.......maybe a big ole crawfish was crawling on the rock when she inhaled it...and the rock just got sucked up in the mix. I've caught many fish over the years with plastic worms and hooks intact in their stomachs.
