10.5 Largemouth out of Barkley?

[Toadman]

That was Wayne Winters - he caught it last week. The crazy part about it, is the fish had already spawned out. I wonder what it would have weighed a week earlier - probably closer to 12+. I fish with him/against him regularly in a small bass club - I'm just glad he gets it all out of his system during the week, and not during tournament time. J/K he is a heck of a fisherman.

Wayne is a heck of a guy. I had heard that most of the biggest fish down there had already spawned. I bet that thing would have been around 12.

Thanks guys, The fish is the largest I have caught. It weighed 10.05lb on our tournament scales, She had already spawn and the tail was almost healed.

THANK YOU to all who have stopped by the new store. Grand Opening will be sometime in May & we are working on a meet the Pros day in June, we are still getting everything in place.....

being curious, with the tail almost healed, when do you think that fish spawned?

Any of you all know how much weight in eggs a female can hold? I don't see it being pounds? More like ounces....I'm just guessing here and curious?

I'm not sure with a fish that big.. I think normally when i catch a big one thats about to bust it weighs a 1/2lb to 1lb more than it normally would. Not as much as you would think by looking at them. But hey, congrats on a monster fish bassen. Do you have a picture by any chance, I would love to see her!
