Just saw this post over on BBC
"I've got a buddy that has a buddy that saw it weighed in at the store in Indian River, I'm waiting for more details as well!!! 9.98lbs! We all new it would happen! I saw one in Mullet two years ago that was an absolute giant, in my opinion at the record or larger? I'll update when I know more, got a call in to a MDNR CO to try and confirm?"
So, We might have a new SB state record
So, If there's any pic's of the fish. I know I'd like to see that fish
Here's a link to the current record

Your quoting a good friend of mine Brian Webber... I hope he has his story right. LOL..
Heard the same thing today from a buddy. Probably the same guy Webber heard it from. My brothers wife works at the store that I was told it was weighed at. She had no idea about it. Not that big of a store so I don't know if it happened while she was there or what? Also not sure if that is the store that it was weighed at. All of what I have heard is just that....what I heard.
I'll post what I can find out as soon as possible. It's a good source so I wouldn't doubt what's been heard...
Photo's are on BBC, don't know if Dan wants the link posted here?
Here's the pic from Facebook
I've got the story right from the angler himself: Bruce Kraemer lands pending state record Michigan smallmouth bass (http://www.greatlakesbass.com/news/blog1.php/2016/09/13/bruce-kraemer-lands-record-smallmouth-ba) if you want to read how it all went down. I'm told the situation looks good so it should be confirmed officially on Thursday or Friday by the MDNR when the actual paper paperwork is received in the mail.
