19 Pounder

[Goonst]

I mentioned the 19 pound largemouth I caught a llloonnggg time ago in the DD thread and someone said it needed a picture. I actually haven't been able to find it but it popped up on a San Diego forum because I caught it on a leap day and a friend sent it to me. So here it is. There's a lot of skeptics on here when someone posts a picture and claims a weight. Does it look 19-1/2 lbs.?

The story of the fish is why most of us do what we do. You never know what the next cast may bring.

Geez Louise! I would frame that! Picture of your big fish has to way more than most I’ve caught. Makes my two 10+ fish I mounted look sickly!
