The fish of a lifetime. I wasnt on the lake more than 15 minutes when i hooked this pig. I didnt have a scale with me but i did take measurements that were 23inches long and the girth was 20inches. The fish calculater says it was 8lbs. 13oz. I snapped many pics of the fish before letting her go. I got this fish in one of the half dozen lakes in federal way. Urban fishing at its finest. I would say what lake i got her in but the lake cant take the pressure. I caught her on a booyah spinnerbait up shallow in about 3 feet of water. I saw the fish strike it but didnt think it was going to be that big until i got her to the boat. When i was trying to lip her to get her in the boat i was shaking like a leaf. This fish might be the record for this lake. I was thinking of keeping this fish and getting it mounted but i feel better letting her go to live the rest of her life in the lake. She most likely is on her last year of life. I have been fishing all my life and just started bass fishing last year. Im a salmon/steelhead guy that started bass fishing last year and i have got 3 bass over 6 and half pounds now with numerous ones 3 to 5 pounds. Not bad for a rookie bass fisherman. I am still freakin out about that fish, biggest bass i have ever seen.

The fish was on a stringer for a few minutes. I was by myself when i caught it and had to get to a neighbor on the lake to take pics. And why would i lie about releasing this fish, i catch and release all my bass. Sounds like a little jealousy.

Very nice bass, you already surpassed my largest bass and I've been fishing for bass for more than 20 years! Good to hear the salmon/steelhead guys converting, welcome to the dark side.

Nice piggy looks bigger than 8-13. Another report last week said he caught a 10 pounder and this fish dwarfs that one. Again nice fish.
