 Man ties record for biggest largemouth bassMan ties record for biggest largemouth bass
DANIA BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- A man was being credited with tying the 77-year-old world record for catching the biggest largemouth bass. The International Game Fish Association announced Friday that it had confirmed the 22-pound, 4-ounce fish caught by Manabu Kurita. The Florida-based group said Kurita caught the fish July 2 on Lake Biwa, Japan's largest lake. Kurita's fish tied the record of George Perry, who caught his bass on Georgia's Montgomery Lake on June 2, 1932. Kurita used 25-pound test line and a live blue gill as bait. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/ ... 1-16-38-13 You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post. |

Re: Man ties record for biggest largemouth bass I was raised as a child on the Willamette River..... its the largest tributary to the Columbia. The Paper Mills in Oregon City used to keep their logs in rafts up river and amidst those log rafts was a great habitat for Large and Small Mouth Bass.
On of the biggest thrills of my life was catching a 5 lb Large Mouth Bass. It struck the bait like a FREIGHT TRAIN and I will never ever forget that moment. A 22 lb Bass???.......Wow. _________________ We are here for one reason; to choose or deny Jesus, PM me for instructions. |

Re: Man ties record for biggest largemouth bass nice..largest large mouth in our fmaily is held by my 11 year old daughter
she caught a 7 lber last year...she landed it into the boat herself..man she was surprised... but 22 lbs that a fisherwomens dream _________________ In loving memory of my son Chris April 12 1985-June 19 2007 I don’t think it’s a matter of “is it coming.” I think that it’s already here, it’s just a matter of perspective. From one perspective, our frog friends are telling us that we should be grateful that the “spa” is hot and luxurious. From the cook’s perspective… another 10 minutes and we’ll be dinner. |

Re: Man ties record for biggest largemouth bass That is huge!!!!!!!!!!! I wonder how old that fish is. I have never caught a bass. But catching and landing a 44 inch Northern Pike was a pretty big thrill.
