that is crazy it will be interesting to see if they allow it, the last time i caught a 25lb bucketmouth was at bartlets through the ice on 2lb test with a waxie. :D :D

That is an amazing fish. I bet there are just a few of those big boys running around lake winona.

How much would a fish like that be worth?

i actually saw a 25 lbs bass on my underwater camera in lake winona. but then it was savagely attacked by about 1200 3 inch sunfish, kinda like a baby deer being attacked buy a pack of hungary wolves. the only think left was a bunch for full bellied sunfish stomachs. unfortunatly when you divide 25 lbs of food by 1200 the sunfish only gained .02 lbs, making them grow from 3 inches to 3.001 inches. and i bet they just made more babies!

The Next IGFA certified World Record Bass will be worth a Million minimum.

This fish won't be it though. They knew it and that's why they released it. Foul hooked just doesn't count.

I congratulate them on releasing it. They are true trophy hunters who are honest...don't find that very often.
