That is a BRUISER!! I have seen 1 gill that went 12 inches, and I was fishing with Dave Genz up in this neck of the woods when HE caught it, and it dwarfed the 10.5 inchers we were catching. My buddies dad spends the winters in Arizona, and he has several 2lb gills from waters down that way that I think he is mounting. Regardless………..YIKES is that a monster monster Gil!! Congrats!!
