I had a couple went right at 8" last year...they came in with the water in the summer of 2014, so I don't really know what size they were originally. I pulled 300 out last summer to help out a neighbor to restart a forage base for his LMB and to give my CNBG and RES a chance. It seems like everyone that I catch from 3 1/2" to 8" are butterball fat (gravid). I never see any under 3 1/2"....hopefully the Legs (LMB) are taking care of those. I've read where they can get upwards of 2 lbs...would be interesting to see. I catch them on artificial jigs frequently.
