Here's a look at one of Yuan Yao's biggest recent catches! This 10 lbs. 3 oz.

Collier County Tenner
Daniel Piedra provides details on his big one: "7:00PM. Flipped a 6" green pumpkin senko into a patch of weeds, 2 ft depth, didn't feel the bite but I saw the line move, set the hook hard, and cranked her to the bank, don't give her a chance to fight back!" Awesome catch-and-release!

Lake Hernando double digit
Jason Castellanos was the proud catcher-and-releaser of this fine 10 lbs. 1 oz. bass from Lake Hernando! Double digit bass (weighing 10 pounds or more) represent only a small fraction of 1% of the many bass out there, making each one a special catch. With a TrophyCatch release, another lucky angler — maybe YOU! — will have a chance to join the double digit club. Well done, Jason!
