22 pounds in Georgia. Nope. I don't think so. 17 is as big as they get down South NOW. Back in 1932 when it used to get cold and the growing season was much shorter some cat caught a 22 pounder?

Gettin old is for pussies! AND MY NEW TRUE people say like Capt. Tom >>>>>>>>>/

Meh- I don’t know jab. The pressure now days is like comparing Traffic on i95 up north to a country dirt road. There would be bass that didn’t see an artificial lure their entire life. Now, I would be surprised if a fish went a week without seeing ine
It's in the books, so...
Crops are harvested, animals are killed.
George Perry's fish must have grew up in Paul Anderson's farm- he is still the worlds strongest man I don't care how much the roid freaks try to tear him down. There was somethin in the water back then in Georgia.
Have they ever grown a LMB in a controlled environment larger than the Perry fish's official weight? Biologists ever shocked one up?
I seen one bout 6 years ago waitin on the hatch at the dock that looked like a Grouper. Just sayin

The fish was weighed by kks
From 2010.. but don’t guess I would trust the Japs any more than Mr Perry.

Haha could just as real. Roland Martin once theorized it was a 22 pound rockfish that got lost and stuck in the oxbow lake, and it got eaten before anyone could ID it differently. That was before the picture I posted was supposedly found in an attic album though. The man pictured was a neighbor's cousin or some such, so it's odd that Perry was never pictured with it.
Montgomery Lake where it was caught is just a silted in wood duck hole now.
The level to which those glorified carp have been elevated astounds me.
Dry 'em out and fry 'em up.
My theory is that instead of embracing reality, Ray Scott embraced the myth. He put an unattainable $1,000,000 bounty on a ghost that he knew he would never have to pay. Legend became accepted fact to generations of bass fishermen when the great B.A.S.S. wasn't pointing out the ridiculousness of it...
