Caught A HUGE bass!!

YES!! I beat my PB (AGAIN!) Today! My previous personal best was 9.8lbs. I've caught 7lbers, 8lbers, and 9.8 was the closest I got to breaking double digits for the first time. But today, I caught a MONSTER 11.2LB BEAST!!! I keep replaying it over and over in my head and i still can't believe it myself! She crushed my favorite lipless crankbait, the strike king redeye shad. I usually use chrome/blue, but today I tried sexy shad and I'm glad I did! Only thing I regret is I didn't get her measurements. She got both trebles and it took awhile to remove them, get pictures, weigh her on the scale and all so I revived and released her before I remembered I could use fishing line to measure her. Darn! Still the fish of a lifetime though!

More pics

Here's A few more pictures of this monster. That fish and the experience catching her will stick with me for life! Thought I hooked into a log or snagged a big carp in the tailfin.

Awesome, very healthy looking fish also. Hope you get rewarded for letting her go and catch her when she is 13 plus!

Congrats, that is a fine fish right there. Most people fish all their life and never catch one like that.

...just joking, seriously.
Er... Excuse me but,
... I think you left out the best picture!
Everytime I see you with a giant fish, you have a Tackle Warehouse shirt on!
Got to get me one!
Way to go!

PS- Nice smile (wink, wink, nod, nod)!
