5.8 pound toad

Caught this 5.8 pound toad in a pond just outside of ashburn a few days ago. Caught her in less than 3 feet of water on a suspending jerkbait. She hit it on a 5 second pause. She was definitely one of the fattest bass i have ever seen. She had a 5 inch bluegill in her throat.

Re: 5.8 pound toad

Thanks guys! and no i didnt curly i had a really good hookset and it took a while to get the hook out so we weighed her real quick got this picture and let her go as fast as possible... ill get her again in a few weeks when shes bedding and get all the measurements then. she was probably only 19 inches but she was really heavy. Probably only a 4.5 pound fish when not stuffed to the brim with food.
