Was definitely nervous my line would break on this one!
Caught him on an Ugly Stick and a Shimano Sedona reel

You caught that beauty out of Lake Chabot? The one in Castro Valley? I had no idea they had fish like that there!
Good catching Matt!!!
Thanks!
Yes they have some big old Pig fish in there.
This one had sticks in his stomach when I gutted him. Fat ass was eating everything he could!
That is for sure a beauty 🌝looks even bigger than 8lb. Great job& photo🎣‼️
Thank you.
I'm 180 lbs and the fish looks bigger than my leg! 😆
Good one Matt. Were you trolling, or casting, or sitting and waiting for the bite. Bait? Lure?
Trolling the lake for this monster.
Shad lure near Raccoon pass.
Very nice fish Matt ! Is that the Lake Chabot that's in Castro Valley ? Fished Lake Chabot in CV 60 years ago , very large catfish and bass back then , trout were dinks , barely keepers .
Yes
Castro Valley.
The trout must have grown up since then.

Those sticks they’ve been eating must have growth hormones in them.
How do the fish taste Matt?
Taste like salmon
Good pink meat
