Check this thing out.  More than twice as big as my biggest bass (so far!).

Yeah, that thing is a chunk!  And to think he was fishing for catfish at the time as well!  Talk about right time, right place...kinda like when someone who has never hunted finds a tree, sits down and shoots a 160+.  Problem is then it ruins you by making it seem too easy!  (or at least that is my story since it didn't happen to me)

WOW!!!  Nice catch.  But, did you take the time to read any of the comments posted under it?  People are nuts.  Obviously, Arkansas needs  to get on board with a "Share Lunker" program.  It's a shame that beast had to die. :'(

Thats what I thought. How cool would it be if you released that bass and knew it was in that lake.
