Scott Campbell of Springfield, Missouri, pulled in the big fish from Lake Falcon April 3. The fish weighed 13.13 pounds. Campbell was fishing with a 10-inch worm in 25 feet of water. Unfortunately the fished died before agents could transport it to Athens. Saturday evening, Pamela Plummer of Fort Worth was fishing in seven feet of water off a dock on Lake Fork when her Zoom watermelon red plastic worm got hung up in some vegetation—or so she thought. “Then my pole bent, and I realized I had a fish,” she said. “It jumped and I realized I had a big fish. It jumped three times before I got it in. My husband almost had a heart attack.” Plummer’s fish weighed 13.11 pounds and was 25.5 inches long and 22 inches in girth.
