so quite recently at my local highschool I started up a little bass fishing club, and we've been doing pretty well with about a dozen members so far. the last meeting discussion we had turned to fish photos and a variety of good fish photos were shared, some six pounders, a few fours, and one seven. one of our new members kept on saying that all of the fish photos everyone had were "tiny" and "hardly single pounders" and when the conversation turned to him and what he had caught, he produced a photo of an easy nine to ten pound fish.
keep in mind that in montana our state record is just a bit over eight, so this was a pretty impressive fish. according to his story it weighed in at two pounds, as his scale was broken. but unfortunately he ended up eating the fish and never brought it in as a record.
