I am just speculating, but a few things have me calling this bluff:

That chick is holding onto the heavy end of a 100lb fish and looks way too comfortable
There are no other pictures than this grainy one. In this day and age where a gopro can capture 4k images in a package smaller than most point and shoot cameras, I would think there would not only be more images, but higher quality ones too.

There was a rumor about this fish floating around Sunday. I was at a cookout and one of my nephews told me he heard about a bass that was longer than the world record but only weighed 55#.

No boat, back in the suds.

That wasn't a rumor it was caught on a boat in nj by a young lady trolling a bunker spoon. Fish was 3" longer than myersons but had just spawned and weighed 56lbs. Pic is easy to find on the web

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I keep saying the same thing about Sasquatch, UFO's and my buddy's girlfriend. I can take excellent photos in pitch black, at moving targets with my phone but nothing that ever seems unreal is ever taken cleanly.
