Occurred on February 27, 2018 / Blountsville, Alabama USA
Info from Licensor: "This broke the record for the largest bass caught by hand. This bass weighed 16 pounds 7 oz. This broke my previous record of 16.03 which was caught by hand in 2016. It takes a lot of time and effort to catch a bass of this size by hand. This was very exciting for me and it took every bit of my strength and energy to control and pull this bass in. She was released and was not hurt making this video."
