My photo shop skills are straight out of kindergarten, you are right. Swimbait usually does it for me, but not today. I feel really dumb actually when it comes to that fish. It weighed 5 lb 4 oz, which from what I have read is a world record. Current record weighs 5 lb 2 oz. I thought it was a spotted bass at the time and after that picture I let her breathe at the side of the boat while debating to put her in the livewell or not. She shreaded my thumb and that was the last I ever saw of her.
