Oklahoma Department of Wildlife announced a new sunfish (any species) record this past week. Glori Johnson, 8 years old, is the proud owner of a Lake Texoma record for sunfish. Her catch weighed 1.6 lbs, 11 inches long, and with a girth of 12 inches...looks like a ball. Glori shared that the fish was caught out of Buncombe Creek while using Zebco rod, Eagle Claw reel and natural bait.
