Was fishing for small mouth bass in a pound which I have fished at my whole life. I have never caught a fish more then one pound there and pulled this beast out of absolutely no where. It was just under 11 1/2 pounds and was released back into the pond to fight another day. I'm still in shock this the biggest bass anyone I know has ever seen.

did you get any other pics?? id like to see them to really figure out just how big she was. 1 picture is hard to tell sometimes. Also any measurements? Girth? Length? If that was weighed on a certified scale, I bet ODNR would love to hear about that fish.

Definitely looks like a pig!!! But ya a nice side pic would be great....you can see the belly smushed up from where your holding her....one of it stickin out would be awesome and more pictureable!!! PICS PICS PICCSS!!! hahah that fish is just awesome! what did u catch her on?
Ok now, lets be nice. Thats a nice bass no matter what the weight is , congratulations on a good catch.
This is the only other pic that i have on my camera that justifies its size. This is my brother holding it, he may have some good pics on his cell phone camera that i could post later. It was weighed on a regular handscale, non-digital, but the scale is accurate because we tested it on a 10 pound weight when we got home. Unfortunately we did not get and length or girth measurements because we did not think of it at the time which i am regretting right now. I caught it on a black and white fake worm that had 3 hooks in it. I believe it was called a bass stopper and was labeled "#1 rigged lure" because of the three hooks on it. If my brother has some good pictures ill post them later, thanks for commenting everyone!

huge bass. Thats the genetics you want in your pond. By the looks of its tail , its prepping to spawn or already starting. Nice job.
Nice fish! Excellent work!

Regardless of what it weighs, I think it looks bigger than the current OH record bass & it is " supposedly " 13.5#.
