Spencer Alan McCormack recently caught this incredible 3.66-kilogram (8-pound, 1-ounce) smallmouth bass to potentially set the new IGFA Men’s 4-kg (8 lb) Tippet Class World Record. A couple months ago he applied for his first World Record smallmouth on the fly, but unfortunately, his tippet over-tested leading to a rejected application. Just last week he caught another 5-pound, 11-ounce smallmouth which is now the pending 4-kg (8 lb) Tippet Class World Record. Fast forward 5 days and he catches this monster 8-lb, 1-ounce smallmouth while fly fishing with a “mousey” gurgler style fly in Northern Michigan. The fish took nearly all of his fly line before doing its acrobatics, and was landed in approximately 3-minutes. If approved, this would be the largest smallmouth bass caught on the fly in the IGFA record books! #fishIGFA
