Location of 81lb bass.
So if you one of you guys caught the fish at your favorite big fish spot, how far off would you report the location that you caught it?

I lie even when I don't catch anything. Like, "I got skunked on Brenton Reef yesterday"

Seeing as how we could all use some exercise...
The furthest perch at Napatree point....  .....using whole pogies, tight to the bottom, so make sure you bring enough bait & weight...

 ... it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

I would be submitting it for WR approval, so I'd play it straight as to the location. The crowds would eventually go away, and in the meantime, I'd fish somewhere else.
As far as what I caught it on, though.......I'd go with the companies with the deepest pockets.

How tight do you need to narrow it down for IGFA  ?
Too many people know what I use and how for me to BS my way for sponsorship.

Don't know, but it's the one time in my life when I wouldn't screw around.
And in any event---like others have said---there have been plenty of times in the past when I was honest and no one believed me anyway.

Even if there was a video of me catching the fish, no one would believe it.

I'd say either the canal or CT.RI is small enough.

If it's a world record you HAVE to be 100 percent honest, they will and have subjected people to a polygraph, lists it in the first paragraph of the wr application.
You have to submit the line, leader, rig if it was bait, plug or lure, etc.
So you can say whatever you want but they verify it all.
Rod and reel also get inspected if there's any question.

I's be 100% honest but I would ask them - for sake of security - to limit the location to a wide area, say off Jamestown, not Hull cove.

I would be very vague. If I caught it 40 yards east of pole 40 Capeside I would tell them east of the bridge, Capeside. They would have to figure out the rest. The closer I am to them the closer they would get, a select few would get the pole number and even less would know the actual rock I was on.
