World-record bass boated in California
<http://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/fishing/news/story?page=f_fea_bass_world-record_Weakley_25.1>

"CARLSBAD, Calif. — "Chaos has broken out."

Well, what do you expect when you notify the media that you boated a potential world-record bass?

That was the story at the home of Mac Weakley, who early Monday caught a largemouth on tiny Dixon Lake in southern California that he and his long-time fishing partner Jed Dickerson weighed out at 25.1 pounds on a hand-held digital scale.

If that weight stands up it would shatter what is considered to be the granddaddy of angling records — the 22¼-pound largemouth bass taken in 1932 at Georgia's Montgomery Lake by George Washington Perry."

That is one big fish.

1. that was a huge fish.
nice to see it released. a world record catfish was caught in the fall and died in the truck on the way to a cabela's store where it was going to be displayed.
