But is it just me, or does that bass have odd eyes...? Fantastic fish, and yes I want one too. Don't we all? Odd eyes? Since I have not had the opportunity to hold a 15+lb Bass up close I have no idea what the eyes should look like. Having been transported the way this Bass was maybe that's why the eyes seem odd. It was probably scared and wondering just why did I have to bite that lure.

Hey guys check this site out. Ya'll know that was the 398 bass over 13 pounds since the sharelunker program was started. The person who catches the 400th one gets a minimum of $5500 dollars, a $600 shimano/g-loomis combo, lifetime fishing license and a fiberglass mount.

Its funny how that one and the World Record were both caught while fishing for other species.
Maybe others.

You mean I caught mine too early? FEB., '96. Just my luck. WOW, though 15+ lbs. I'd like to have a day like that myself.  Nice.

WOW,
I'm glad you let it go though.
A fish like that has already beaten the odds
and by setting it free again everyone wins,
Congrats on your new record - nicely done.
- Great story...

Received this in a forwarded email from the angler that caught this beautiful fish. The fish was transported by Dick Luebke of TxP&WL later that night, but four days later it went to the big Pond in the sky. Tom Sutherland Debra Hengst  http://www.debrahengst.com
