This one was a pound & 2 ounces shy of the PA state record. 22.5" by 17" measured & weighed on two different scales. 

 

 

 

Looks about 2 or 2.5 lbs heavier than the potential record that began this thread. Maybe 3

Isn't it odd that so many people catch these state record or world record fish but they document it terribly and let the fish go? I am sorry but if I catch a state record bass I am going to try to keep it alive and call the DNR as soon as possible for official documentation. I understand that some people do catch some records for lesser known species and not report it but not for well known fish like largemouth and smallmouth bass.

Yep.  I said the same exact thing about Brian Schram's "9lb 7oz" from LSC....

hahahahahaaa .....

 

After seeing all the smallies on this thread I wondered when Schram would be back to post another picture of his fish

Looks like my 9lber! 

My personal best SM was 7-7 and this fish looks 5 to 6 pounds to me.
