he fought very hard his body filled my hands up. caught on havoc pitboss in okeechobee craw color.

Bowfin always break my heart. Every time, I think I have a big bass on the line! They are fun to catch though. I know a lot of guys hate them, but I'll take that fight anytime.

I catch a ton of these fish in the spring Crappie fishing the swamps at home.  They put up a heck of a fight and the fun thing is if you miss them, keep putting it in their face they will continue to hit until you finally get a hook in them.  The only down side is they will mangle whatever it is you are using.
