100% legit - I know the "kid", his Dad, and people who fish with them.

They have been coming up this way every year for a week or two since the kid was 2 ft tall - good people, and good fishermen.

The first pic made everyone question it I think mainly because of the "Sltwater Sportsman"esque holding of the fish far away from the body. The second pic gives a better perspective. I say mid 80's. Incredible that we will never know the exact weight too.

I definitely think he could have made some money on that fish, but like it was already said in MD where he most likely caught the fish it is C&R only right now.

Good for him on the release.
Most would have boxed it and said they caught it some place else just to be an Internet hero.

May fortune favor the foolish....

The latest I read on the other site reported the fish at 53" long with a 33.5" girth, giving it an approximate weight of 74.35 lbs according to the weight formula. WOW! I bet that fish may be one of the top 5 biggest bass ever caught from shore.

Almost depressing to see, since most of us realize we will NEVER get a fish that big... I guess 50 is the new 30 these days
