That is awesome man! Congrats.

Nice, thanks for sharing with us. Keep taking those little guys out. My pond had some big ones die at turnover. I shoulda been pulling some 14 inchers out!

Nice bass. That is really going to brighten up your wall.

I for one doesn't have a problem with him keeping his catch of his life so far. Not many people will have multiple taxidermy fish anyways and if they do it'll be only 2-4. It's the people that poach and exceeds their limit that puts a hit in bass population. It's his right to keep that fish under the regulations.

I have hope none of you guys posting don't hunt or know people that hunts. A male buck is consider a trophy but it seems a fish gets more protected by the public.
