Close to 10lbs if not over, in my guess-timation!

Definitely a double digit bass, I am guessing pushing 12 pounds even with the long arm technique.

FWIW: There are some up sides to putting it back. A friend had a double digit bass in his pond. Although I never caught it, it added excitement to know it was in there. Mounts cost $ and the fish won't grow on your wall. You must have a real nice fishing spot!
FWIW: I know the father of someone who caught, in a relatively small public lake, and released a LMB that easily exceeded our state record. He simply fishes for personal satisfaction and didn't care about having a record. Something kind of neat about that.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
