Until just recently that was 1/2 pound Bigger than My PB Smallmouth . . . . . .
He could have used a gaff to land it.

That is impressive! The size of that things mouth compared to the massive body is just insane. Was there an actual report on it? Just curious what he caught it on.

If sunfish regularly got that big the bass would probably never have a chance to get at your bait anyways.

The report said he was using a #8 gold aberdeen hook with a nightcrawler and initially though he'd hooked a catfish! I can't believe that thing didn't straighten that little lightwire hook out!
Well boys, looks like were gonna need to petition a rod company to make an xxxxxx heavy rod so we can throw five lb swimbaits.
