You're only off one ounce and an inch. Catch her again in a few months or catch one that is larger! I'm mounting a North Carolina bass that size. I was under the impression a Florida bass has to be 10 lbs. to be considered a trophy and a 26 inch bass is not that unusual for a Florida bass. Was I wrong?

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
