Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he'll be gone for the entire weekend.

Yep, as it says in the article...you just don't see them that big that often...guess not if it breaks record held for 34 years by 15 lbs :rotfl:

Wow, I've never even heard of a bass that large. I couldn't have kept it, would have felt bad. I would have live released it. To each his own though.

Can you imagine a "Largemouth Bass" reaching that weight?

Very impressive. They must be doing something right there for a fish to get so big!!!!!

That is ONE NICE FISH! I have fished for striped bass for a long time and 54 pounds is the best I have ever done. The state record here is in the 65 pound range, don't know for sure.
