Yup, them catfish are pesky little creatures. However, they are fun to catch. I am not sure that she would have been let go, cause they are such a good eating fish.
The 20" bass that I caught from the Rocky Mountain PFA was 6 lbs. 3 oz. Of course, I do believe that she might have been in the process of spawning, so that would have made her just a little bigger. I would guess that your bass is pushing 4.5 lbs., and if you held your mouth just right, she might hit 5 lbs. She's a gorgeous fish.
I went fishing this morning, and I got 1 bass, about 2 lbs., on a Pop-R. After that, nothing.
