What a great fish to catch, this was my first one. Does anyone know how big they can get in Stocked Highlands East Lakes?

This one was 26 inches 9lb 4oz..

Wow, thats a great fish.  Looks like you got yourself quite the lake.  I've fished so many splake lakes north of there and my biggest is approx. 4 lbs.   Best of luck beating that 9'er.

Nice one Bud, I usually do a Bancroft outing once a year for Splake and they can be a hit and miss. Congrats.
