It would probably even encourage more giant fish to be turned in that normally wouldn't be due to not wanting to ruin a good lake.

I don't see why people rush to fish a lake that just produced a share a lunker, it's not like everyone is going to go and catch a 10 plus fish, seem ridiculous.

When a lake is on flame that is the place to be...just ask the traveling circus

You’re on to something. Supposedly you can request the lake be kept confidential and then TPWD releases the name anyways. So it’s easy, don’t participate if you care about a small lake.

Anything under 13 being reported is kinda lame. I had two of those Bass Pro Shops fish Sunday and I didn’t even win second place big bass. Took over 10 to win big bass.

Do they get t shirts or something?

So this fish was removed from the program because the fisherman's license expired a few days before the catch.

Wonder if TPWD is gonna track him down on a different lake and issue him a citation like they did with JJ.........................

So where the lunker? Did they toss her back, keep her at the TFFC, or fry her up at the Boathouse restaurant?

Lol. Yeah I thought it was only for DD's. Wonder if they changed it. Didn't they use to give you a replica of the fish? Attached is the "recognition" that you get for turning a fish in.
