3 lakes(Fork, Athens & Holbrook) in one day(plus some very poor fish handling skills). Go to 4:20 to see the 12. https://youtu.be/JnRNM2JGooQ

Who the carp is this guy? Did he buy FishLyfe from BL? Why is he pumping it so hard? That’s a big fish. Who am I to say it’s not 12? I’ve never caught a 12

Y'all joking right? That's a 7.5-8lb fish at best.
I've actually seen 12 lb fish and they do not look like that.
Also I'm not sure what that landing technique was... Like why did he have to body slam the fish and why was the one dude belly crawling across the deck?

Lol, fat fish, I have my doubts that it was 12 though. Maybe it was a Robby Rose leftover...

Looks pretty typical of someone who hasn't caught many over 6lbs. From letting the fish practically swallow the bait to the fish landing. Nice 8lber though

if it's 12 pounds why did he not weigh it on camera?

HaHa, last year, although I would have thought it, if I had actually said it out loud the city would send me back to diversity training!

Huge bass for sure. 12? Totally subjective but I don’t think so. Part of why I posted this was for everyone’s entertainment but also so y’all could see this guy spike the football(shaped bass) like he had just scored a touchdown.

Solid 8-9 lb fish. Not 12 lbs.
