That is so cool that they released this fish!

The "foul hooking" shouldn't be a problem, if his witnesses are credible, as only "intentional" foul hooking disqualifies a fish. However, the lack of measurements probably will disqualify it.

Not too many years ago, there was a big stink about another bass caught in California. Lack of documentation and outcries by many who had doubts about the angler and catch resulted in disqualification of the application for it. I can assure all that the review process for a record application is quite extensive!

If I remember (CRS), I will try to keep an eye on this for y'all.

Just saw on the news that the guy is not going to pursue the record!

Only he knows for sure why not.

Looks like my mother in law. Wish I could "release" her.

That fish might have been worth a million bucks in endorsements, can't figure why the guy would not want to cash in. Confused
