Click on the photo to the right of the fishing story and have a good look at Taylor Odom's bass. It reaches from his shoulder down almost to his knee.

Awesome fish, indeed...a beast...wish I would have caught it! And on a frog to-boot, which is about my favorite way to catch em.

It only reaches from his shoulder to his knee if he's sitting down though...lol

I understand, hun, you're just jealous. lol Were you assuming Taylor is 7 ft tall? The largest bass I have ever caught was 7.2 pounds; fishing with a Lucky 13 topwater. I was fishing in river backwater and overthrew and the lure stuck in the mud right at the water's edge. When I pulled it off the mud and it started moving through the water, that bass hit like thunder. I will always cherish that memory because I was on one of the last fishing trips I made with my dad before he died.
