I figured five or better, that is a serious Spot my man. I have raised a few that size at the big C but it's hard to get one to committ. I had one come up with one I had hooked one time on one of my places that holds alot of Kentuckies and I honestly think it would have made 6 pound maybe a fuzz more. Put he rod between my legs with the smaller one still hooked and picked up a spinning outfit and flipped it a Fluke he rushed it and then stopped, you know how they will do, then said not today fella and just sank through the water column out of sight. I can still see that beast in my minds eye.

Good job on the release, what a Spot. My biggest ever was just over four pound but it came from Barren on a lime buzzbait. Biggest ever from Cumberland might have been three pound or so.
