James Robertson, a local kayak fisherman, caught his personal best bass. A 9.54-pound spotted bass. He caught the fish on a custom bait made by Destroyers' bait, their Jar Head in the 3/8-ounce size. He paired the Jar Head with a Crush City Mayor in the 2.5” shad color.
“I threw the lure out there and was dragging the bottom when I felt a hard thump. At first, I thought I had a catfish. The visibility of the water was only 3 feet deep, which helped me not to overreact to the size of the huge spot. The fish barely fit in my net.”
The fish measured 23” and weighed 9.54 pounds.
