World Record


Hi Frank,

Enjoyed your column this morning. It reminded me of something. Have you heard anything about the (possible) world record bass that was caught (snagged?) a couple of months ago in California? Seems to be a lot of controversy surrounding that and I haven’t read anything lately about it. Thanks.—Barry Lilien, Carrollwood

A: I spoke to the IGFA about this last week. The angler never submitted the application on the fish, probably because of the controversy regarding it being snagged. So, the old record continues to stand. Best, FS.
