This picture was submitted by Bud Bell of Columbus, MS who told the Bragging Post this story,

"This fish was caught by Carol Crimm on April 4, 2008, from a pond in our yard. We live in New Hope which is just outside of Columbus. The fish weighed 7lbs. 8ozs. and is her largest catch to date. We were fishing in the morning just ahead of a front. The rain started about a half hour after this picture was taken. She caught it on a 6" green Zoom lizard. I have been introducing her to different styles of bass fishing, so this was a great accomplishment for the both of us. I think I was more excited than her!!!"
