The world record is 22 pounds, 4 ounces. 1932, Montgomery Lake, Georgia, by Richard Perry. A couple of years ago, a 25 pound bass was caught in Lake Dixon, California, but the record was disallowed because the fish was foul hooked in her side, all fish must be hooked in the mouth to be counted. This fish, called "Dottie", was found dead of natural causes last year. She was identified by a dark spot on her gill plate, which led to her nickname.
