Little Texas Lake Producing Huge Fish

A bass must weigh at least 13 pounds to qualify for the Texas' unique Toyota ShareLunker program. Only five bass have qualified during the 2011-2012 season (season runs from Oct. 1 through April 30), and three of those five --the most recent three, in fact -- have come from Lake Austin, a 1,600-acre riverine impoundment that's been around since 1939. The most recent ShareLunker, which was caught on Tuesday by Ryan Glass, was also caught and registered as a ShareLunker in February of 2010.
