I caught this one on Sunday July 20th at Scott’s Flat.  I was using a 1/2oz green spinner along the shoreline and casted into a pile of logs/debris where at first I thought I was snagged.  Then it started taking off pulling me and my inflatable boat with it.  Weighed using a hanging scale and came out to exactly 5lbs and was 22 inches.  Josh Green, Woodland, CA
