That was something to see! Hard to be accurate at all, but in my humble opinion not a record if it was landed... By the way those fellas might want to invest in a deeper net!

I don't know, could be. All I can tell you is the guy who missed netting it would need two surgons and a welder to get that net and my fishing pole outta him. jmho

I'd say 16 to 18 pounds. Its really hard to see the entire fish, but a record would be larger IMO.

I love the way the would-be netter looks at the net as if it's the net's fault. Kinda like when playing baseball as a kid and I'd miss a catch, I'd look at my glove and fiddle with the laces and stuff. "Dam, there's something wrong with my glove, and that's why I missed it. If I'd had the proper equipment, this would've never happened."

Big bass, net guy-should have jumped in after it. WR- not sure, I would say 14-15 pounds. Why- I have a 40hp motor also and have reeled 10 pounders in by it. Who know's should have landed him.

net man needs to be beating.. a good guide knows less fish get away if the net is in the water before the fish comes up as you can bring the net up under the fish and scoop it. nice and easy that net is easily deep enough to do it ..
what I saw was a "jab" netter the net actually hits the line either cutting it or knocking the lure out of the fishes mouth.. "jab" netters try to net fish head first.this is NOT a good thing on a fish that large.... zooker

yeah the netter missed it but the fisherman didnt keep the fish down if he would have kept it down the fish couldnt have come up. If that would have happened we would all see a georgous 18lb bass.

Yea a terrible net job. I would say in the 15lb range just doesnt seem to have the length to be a world record...
