Thread: Hybrid Yellow Bass

Had a customer pull in this huge yellow bass on Saturday the 17th. Upon further inspection and with the broken lines near it's tail, it seems to be a hybrid Yellow. At the time I thought nothing but wow, what a big yellow! Another guide mentioned he thought it might be a hybrid. It was about 13 inches long and better than a pound. The Kentucky record is only 1' 6.4 oz and I believe this fish was short of that weight but close. Need to be more vigilant but after 5 trips in 7 days my thinker was a bit discombobulated!!! Here's a pic of that fish and Saturday's family!! That lure is a SteelShad Bladebait. Worked properly it is the deadliest lure for any fish that swims IMHO!!
