#11324, "World Record Largemouth Bass Contender Caught!"

This just went down a couple of hours ago, so I wanted my buddy Rob's bass site to be the first to have it.
Certified weight: 10.12 kg. = 22 lb. 5 oz Length: 29.4 inches Location caught: Lake Biwa, Japan
This was just on the TV news about an hour ago, so this is all the info I have. Mr. Okamura, the president of Deps Tackle Co., helped with the interview; I did not catch the anglers name.
We are well past the spawning season when most of the giants are caught at Lake Biwa; most of the fish now are quiet slender (after spawn condition). Not this one!
Congrats to the angler on a fine catch.
Lake Biwa shocked the bass world a couple years ago by producing a bass that was well over 18 pounds (The Japan record was caught at Lake Ikehara, and weighted over 19 pounds.).
A 25 1/2 lb. bass was caught as by catch in a fisherman's net earlier this year, so many thought it would be just a matter of time before a record size fish was taken from Japan's largest (over 70 miles long) natural lake.
