“By releasing her, maybe I can catch her again a year or two from now and she’ll be big enough to set another record.”
Joshua Daniels caught a big sunfish in Arizona that looked like a smallmouth bass on his forward-facing sonar. After hooking it, Daniels says the fish fought hard and deep, but four minutes later, using 6-pound test, and a long 7-foot-9-inch rod, he brought the fish to the surface where he saw it wasn’t a bass, but a giant sunfish. It turned out to be the new catch-and-release state-record redear sunfish.
