Nice looking fish but my feeling is any bass caught over 30lbs should be released to grow bigger and to give somebody else a chance to catch it. I know a couple of guys who keep anything of any size just to show it off. That is what camera's are for.

Newport Lures use to sell his soft plastic shads with that as a backdrop for years. It was at the Worcester and NY shows.

She's a fantastic fish all right.

The State of Maryland runs or ran a seining program to monitor the health of the bass stock. I think the story of this fish is they pulled it up in one of there nets during a survey off the Patuxent River in the Chesapeake and the fish died before it could be released. I believe this mount normally hangs on the wall of the Maryland DNR office in Annapolis.
