This is Bob Tharratt with a 2.0 lb, 14 inch trophy Redear Sunfish from Rancho Seco ! Great story to this catch:
After I had caught a 12.1 lb Largemouth, I moved over towards Bob and his buddy Emil, to show it off before the release. We ended up having a great conversation, in which I learned that Bob and Emil were retired fisheries biologists ! Even cooler than that, Bob had had a large part in the planning of Rancho Seco lake back in the 60's !
I thanked him for helping to create one of my favorite lakes ! On a parting word, Bob told me that his biggest Sunfish in many years of fishing for them was a 1 lb 10 oz'er, but he was shooting for a legitimate 2 lb'er.
About 2 hours later I met them at the ramp where Bob informed me that he finally caught his 2 lb'er ! Great fish, and great guys !
Thank you very much for everything :-)

This is Shawn McNew (link to his guide service above) with a massive Flathead catfish which weighed 71 lbs, and was 54" long, with a 36" girth !
This monster bit a Gizzard Shad while Shawn was fishing for Stripers. It just goes to show, as long as you have a line in the water, you never know what you might catch ! Incredible !

Here's another "long-billed sportfish" in the 50 lb range. These fish fight very hard and require stout gear just to make landing them possible ! Both of these fish were released after photos and weighing.
