Potential World Record Spotted Bass

[Quillback]

Not official yet, but looks to be a new record. 10 and a half pounds, roughly.

that fish redefines a "football sized" spot. Why do spots grow so big in California?

Thanks for the heads up. I'd be tickled pink to catch a legit 5 pound spot out of Bull Shoals.

Alabama strain spots that are trout eaters

so do you folks consider this a world record? A transplanted fish, that enjoys stocked fish as a meal? Sort of the same as the huge largemouths from southern California. I know what I would say.

I've caught high 4's in Oklahoma and on Table Rock. I cannot imagine 5+, much less 10+.

You'll get a 5 something RPS. It sounds like you've caught some right at the door step. I'd like to know what that 19 inch one I caught last June would have weighed. What does a 2o inch football spot weigh?

I bet a really fat 20" spot would be in the 5 lb. range.
