Ive been fishing for 35 years and I've caught a 9,3 and a 9,0 and this fish hit my bama rig and kicked my but all the way to the boat and I swear it was bigger body than an 11lber that I netted for a friend. My scale said 9.3 and the tournament scale said 8.98. Hell it got smaller as the day went on. All I got to say is it's a good thing it wasn't a 10 or i'd have to retire. LOL!
3 fish for 19 lbs - hell of a day!
Nice fish! That girl looks every bit of 10. Amazing how the density of fish can differ. Buddy caught one recently that I got to lip and weigh. Looked every bit of 11 and maybe pushing 12, but didn't even go 10 and a half. Biggest frame I'd ever seen on a fish and not skinny at all. Just a less dense than average fish.
