New Toledo Bend Record

[Trent Buxton]

Went up to toledo for this past memorial holiday....we messed around and got a little fishin in here and there between the beer drinking and BBQ'n. My brother in-law Blane Vincent was able to land the new hybrid bream record for Toledo Bend. It should be updated in the Lake Caster in the next couple of months. TPWD agent Todd Driscoll quailified the fish after it was weighed in on certified scales at Pleasure Bend Store on the Texas side of the lake off of Hwy 3315. The record now stands at .67 pounds 9 1/2 inches long, 4 1/2 inches along side, 1 1/2 inches wide for a total girth of 11 1/2inches. We got into a pile of big bull bream Sunday afternoon on the inside grassline in the back of all the coves. went through a box of worms and 200 crickets in less than an hour. Talked to store owner at Paradise Point Marina and that was typical all week most folks coming in with 100 to 200 bream every outing. Congrats Blane...Im now in second place in hybrid Bream so I got some catching up to do or ill never hear the end of it. The fish was a hybrid between longear sunfish and redbreasted sunfish. Ill post some other pics of the weekend fish later.
