 I stopped by Tiltman shop and met Stuart Allison who had just set the Lake Lavon Record and she is certified at Bass Pro. Congrats Stuart.

No guys it didn't live. Stuart and I have been good friends for over 20 years.He called me for advice on what to do. I told him that it was going to be a gamble to get the record on whether she would live and if he wanted the record book to reflect it that she would most likely die unless BassPro would take her.He called them and they said to bring her in and they would certify her. So he did....unfortunately their "clean" tank for fish recovery was occupied. He legally couldn't put her in Hubbard so he headed back to town and stopped by here to show her to me knowing it was the freezer then taxidermy for her. If he didn't feel she was a record he obviously would have just put her back in the water. I support him in his decision, those that want to trash him go ahead.

I'll keep any keeper bass. We love them. That one would be hung on the wall for sure. Is that tail beat up from the spawn?
