The Legacy Class ShareLunker Program
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department’s Legacy Class ShareLunker program is a unique initiative that aims to promote conservation and sustainability in the state’s lakes and reservoirs. The program was established in 1998 and has since become a highly successful and popular program among anglers.
How the Program Works
The program is based on a simple yet effective concept: anglers who catch a largemouth bass that meets specific size and weight requirements are eligible to enter the program. The fish must be at least 13 pounds and be caught using a specific type of tackle and fishing method. Anglers who catch a qualifying fish are required to submit it to a designated weigh station for verification.
Benefits of the Program
The Legacy Class ShareLunker program has numerous benefits for the environment, the economy, and the community. Some of the key benefits include:

The ShareLunker Program: A Conservation Effort
The ShareLunker program, founded by O.H. May in 1986, is a conservation effort that aims to promote sustainable fishing practices and conserve largemouth bass populations. The program encourages anglers to catch and release largemouth bass, which are then weighed and measured to track the growth of the fish population.
