Way to go!  New PB's are an awesome feeling.  That thing is a giant anywhere, and the fact that you caught it that far north is even more impressive!

That replica is gonna look dang good my friend.  

Just so excited I wanted to share my new personal record largemouth bass. 7 pounds 12 ounces!! Might not seem like much to some people, but this is the biggest fish(bass) I have ever seen in RI! I am so glad I am the one who caught it. Just dragging a red powerworm over a stump on Tiogue lake at 11:30am Tuesday morning. I was using a 6'9" all star platinum tops and tails rod, Revo STX, and 10lb P-line CX premium and a tru tungsten 5/16 worm weight and true turn blue bass 2/0 hook. Of course I released this bad boy and am open to suggestions where I can get a good replica mount. Thanks, Shawn

Nice fish.

What is with the photochopping of your shirt?

That Bass needs to hit the gym. I do not think I have ever seen a fish that obese. Anyway that is a nice fish congrats.

OUTSTANDING RI HAWG!

My shirt had holes and was covered in duct sealer lol. You just never know when to dress for the picture of a lifetime. And you can never have too many good pictures!
