It weighed in at 4.69 pounds.
That’s a big bass in fact, the biggest bass caught at the Sangchris Lake Sectional earlier this month. And a gigantic thrill for the fisherman who caught it A-C Central’s Nate Dirks.
“The pre-fish days, and the previous tournaments, we had not caught anything big at all,” Dirks said. “So when I hooked into it, I was excited. I was ecstatic. And my boat captain kept telling me to calm down and don’t crank it in, because I was real excited. I was trying to get it in the boat, and I started almost got it knocked off at one point. It was exciting, for sure.”
