    Correct me if I'm wrong but the fish on the right I believe is a shellcracker.

    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    Growing up there was a store in Pelzer across from the gym that had a weekly big fish contest. Me or one of my buddies won biggest bream 80+% of the time and I don't remember us EVER entering one under 2#.

    All of our fish were poached at night from The ponds on Harper Brothers Contruction Co's farm

    Cat those first two fish are big but the camera angle is making them look bigger than I think they really are.

    Use your biggest finger, stick it up to the screen by any one of those photos and use it for size reference to judge how big those fish are against the fingers shown there, not the guy standing at arms length behind the fish. The bream are big, no doubt, but the photo angle is meant to distort the size further.

    And 2th,
    I'll name my shellcrackers in my pond whatever I please.
