Troy Gentry Catches Possible Alabama State Record Bass

Troy Gentry of the popular country music duo Montgomery Gentry has cut his share of records in his day. Now, he may have broken one. While fishing in Birmingham on Saturday afternoon, Gentry pulled in a massive 17.6 pound largemouth bass. Using a Strike King Mini Pro-Buzz Buzzbait in shallow water, Troy had already yanked in a 16 pounder and a 12 pounder when fate jerked his line. “I knew it was a hoss from the first hit,” said Gentry, “and the water was so clear I could see that it might just be a monster.” The fight took around five minutes from strike to net, giving Gentry time to finish another beer while he waited. “That sumb*tch is going on my bedroom wall next to the wedding pictures!” shouted an ecstatic Gentry when the giant was finally landed.

If the catch is verified by Alabama State Game & Fish, Gentry will break a record that has stood since 1987, when a man in Shelby County caught a 16.8 pound bass. However, at press time, there was still some question as to whether a tank-raised and harvested bass should be eligible for the state record books.

  7. Funny how that fisherman’s conversation with my redneck fool self (or possibly he was referring to you this time, Mr. Wilcox) was over about three comments ago yet it continues.

    • I’m pretty sure Mr. vonBrandt (1998 Big Bass World Champ and Hall of Fame angler) would agree that we are both rednecks, despite the fact that he knows almost nothing about either of us and has apparently completely missed the point of the post.

    • Kinda funny how the professional fisherman gets baited so easily.

  8. I like commas, personally.

  9. The funny thing is that I totally missed this hilarious post the first time around. So, thanks, Steve.

  10. I looked at your site and checked you both out. I actually know how to do that. I get it. But it isn’t real funny. Your site is stupid and meaningless and isn’t that well done. Have a good day.
