"Just weighed in at Bass Tackle Master of Lake Havasu Arizona, the new pending world record Redear sunfish 6.30lbs 17" Long, 20" Girth.
Caught by Thomas Farchione of Waterford, Wisconsin.
Dropshotted Nightcrawler was the bait of choice."

That’s incredible. Also, that fellow looks exactly what I’d imaging the world record sunfish holder would.

How old is a fish like that? Any ideas? Crazy bog considering the average fish is like 1/3 lb and one over 1lb is extremely rare.
