Scale has been checked and it is right. Quit hating. The first thing I did was check the weight against an 8 lb. dumbbell. It checked out at 7.94 lbs. To me that's pretty damn close! No one is hating. There is just no way I can be persuaded that that fish is over 5lbs. It's a nice fish, but not an 8lbr.

It's not too hard to just say nice fish guys, then keep your option to yourself.

Here's another pic. It's a nice fish that was hiding under a boat dock. It hit the sm as soon as it dropped into the water. That's usually the case.

Is that right hand pulling down on the gill plate? Has the head of an 8lber and the body of a 4.
Just wanted to stir the pot as these debates always crack me up. Nice catch. Congrats.

Nice fish, indeed. Even a 5 pounder is a big bass out of the guadalupe.
Im not arguing the weight, but with that aside, where the heck did you find an 8lb dumbell?!?
