Celebrated Freedom with my buddy JMeaux today!
Found a few white bass on the fly today along with this Pending Lake Somerville Fly rod record at 16 1/2" and 1.6 Lbs.
I Believe This Fish also qualifies for the Catch and release record, as well as a big Fish Award.

We put him in the Livewell and scooted over to Somerville Marina for verification, and measured, weighed, and released him in less than 10 min.










Thank you to all Veterans for the freedoms we enjoy that made this day possible!!
GOD BLESS AMERICA

Jess, did you get a picture of tooth patch on tongue? Biologist may question you on it if you apply for certificates. I've had a few friends turned down on records for lesser things,( on record applications). The broken stripes make it look like a young hybrid, tooth patch ends any arguments. Congrats to you if it goes through for record, and good luck. Would like to 2nd the Thanks to all of our veterans, for serving this great country!-Mike

We didn't take a picture of the tooth patch but I own the Yegua Fly record and have submitted for big fish awards before and never been rejected. The fact is they haven't stocked hybrids in Lake Somerville in a couple of years so the smallest hybrid I've seen lately is over 18 inches.

Thanks for all the kind words gentlemen.

BigD, I'm sure you have caught a few lake records before and didn't even realize it. The way you know Lake Somerville and the size fish I see you catching leaves no doubt. Jess and I knew the previous record could be easily broken so he found them and put me on them. Now we have to find that 18 inch white bass he caught on his spinning rod roflmao
