Is This a Record Irish Bass

Here is The lure ,,the De La Lande GT Shad Blue with Black Back weighted to a 10g articulated jig head and a 3/0 vaviras sharp as you like hook,,normally a crab hook but perfect for the shads


Here's my mate Brian with a absolute stunner of a Bass Caught on a shad in Ireland it has took me a long time to get this picture from him(getting drunk at my bar in the BandB and various calls) of what we both agree was close to a Record Bass Caught in Ireland in November 2008
The fish was 930mm long and that was calculated off a flat beach picture along side Brian's Rod and measured after ,,also there was no allowance for a very well fed November fish with our estimation of size,,
All i can say is that i am in awe!! of a great angler that after this picture was taken gently cradled that magnificent fish in the sea to recovery and then slipped her back to the estuary waters from where she came,,
i will certainly remember this fish for the rest of my life,and the arguments after!!
Thank you and Well Done Brian for sharing your photographand the fish of a Lifetime
