There was a largemouth over 12lbs C&R'd recently in a western ct. lake. I saw a picture of the guy in a boat holding it up. Looked like it had three pounds of trout in its belly. Hard to tell from a picture how big it really is but for a reference go to Pdona's thread on huge bass which shows a picture of a girl holding a 9lb. bass and then picture a bass longer than that and three times fatter. Looked like something from Florida or California. Not my story or trip so that is all I can add but I believe what I heard and saw.
