That Mass ice bass looks like something from FL or CA!
I was fishing a club tourney at C-Wood in September of 2006 and hooked into a 14-inch LM toward the end, an enourmous largemouth was following it it, I'm guessing looking to eat it. I have to say it was in the 8 to 10 lb class - at least. Came right to boat and everything, I was shaking after seeing that thing.
