That is awesome! I have always wanted to hook into a paddlefish.

Nice. I bet that was fun...
Nice! Sure is an odd looking thing huh?
when we built the race track, at warsaw. their was a large pond, or small lake. that we pumped water from for controlling the dust on the job sight. and after about 5 months of pumping water from the little lake, it was dry and there were some huge paddle fish trashing around in the shollow water and mud. dipped them up with a excavator and loaded them in a puckup truck. didn't weigh them but they were huge. ps. we always called the paddle fish, { spoon bills }

How do you think they got in there? I'm guessing no flood got em in there.
Don, I don't have a clue. how they got there, but they were there. 3 of them and all about to the same size. :)
