That's a brute of a fish Granny,  Congrats on catching it!

I've never caught a hybrid.  Paintsville Lake has got some good ones in it now.  I've seen some brutes in the spillway while trout fishing.  So those hybrids really got my attention this year. 

I took my catfish gear to the spillway this past fall,  trying to catch one of those hybrids.  I looked ridiculous with that giant gear! Most people had light weight tackle,  trout fishing.  I stuck out like a sore thumb,  attracted a lot of attention lol

I was using shinners and chubs for bait.  I'd drop right infront of those hybrids,  they wasn't interested. 

There's been some good hybrids caught at Paintsville Lake the past few years.  I've heard a few predictions that a state record hybrid,  might possibly come outta Paintsville Lake soon.

When I was fishing for those hybrids at the spillway this fall,  the bait I was using,  was bigger than some of the trout people were catching out there    Idk maybe I was using to big of bait.  I did see some hybrids chasing trout.
