I for one, enjoy seeing such a picture, as catching bass is what I enjoy and is why I come here.....

1 - In today's day and age you can take a MUCH better photo than that with almost any camera. If guys keep releasing these grainy, washed out pictures of a bass, people are going to keep speculating
2 - The whole fish isn't in frame and its being held at a VERY peculiar angle.
If I ever catch a fish that big the picture will be very good quality, the fish will be held against my body for an unquestioned source of scale, and the entire fish will be in frame.
I wish people would just try to make their fish NOT look sketchy.
For the record, I didn't doubt the picture was real, just wasn't a WR (>80lb) fish.
