If you are not saying he intentionally snagged it, what exactly is your point, and what exactly do you want to happen here? Spell it out for us. He isn't getting credit for a lake record. Nobody is cutting him a huge check. The state is going to give him a replica, a hat, a sticker, and a few lures. Do you want him to return all that? To be fair though they are getting some awesome genetics any way you spin it. Will that help you sleep better at night knowing some dude on the internet doesn't get credit for catching a bigger fish than you? What's it take to just congratulate a guy on something cool? Should he be required to whip his willy out and put it on a bump board? Bigger fish, bigger willy, cast to catch video, certified scales, no clients in the boat, but you can't be by yourself, and last but not least a letter of approval from the pope? Then we can say awesome, congrats?

It's a fish man, a big fish.

I'm grateful we all got to see it. I'm grateful to be able to fish water where fish like these exist. I'm grateful Milliken, Josh Jones, and whoever else figured out these big fish are out there and catchable. The last two years have been a lot of fun for guys who love chasing big bass. Let good intentions and a shared love of the sport be enough.

Grown men throwing their feeling around about fish is a bit uncomfortable.

Do you guys feel as if it’s better to use high beams while on the boat ramp or low beams? I’m thinking the high will allow trucks pulling down, to see better?
