On June 2, 1932 at Lake Montgomery, Georgia, George Perry caught a bass that would be recognized as the world record. That record stands to this day. In this video, I will tell you the story of the catch, who George Perry was, and controversies surrounding the catch.

I love the cat chirps in the background hahaha
You should do one on dalehallow about the 12lb small mouth
Very well told brother .. I love fishing and I love history ..hope you do more videos like this
Thanks for this story. George Washington Perry was my Great Grandfather. I've heard the story when I was really young from GPA Bob , Georges second son. You mentioned in the video about the photo that is circulating with the little boy in it? That little boy is GGpa Georges first son, Charles (Chuck). GGpa George went on to run a pool hall. He also made moonshine and made a bit of profit off of that.
I believe it will be broke again,these southern states like Florida and so on house these big bass,there in there, some one may have already caught one and they never weighed it, maybe not in my life time,but it will happen.it won't be in artificial,I can tell ya that!😉
Great video! Couldn't even imagine catching a 22.4 pound bass. My PB of 16 pounds was the best day of my fishing life so far. It would be cool to see the World Record broken but I just don't see it happening.
Great, great historical report… well done my friend!!!
Sponsors? For what catching a big fish? Lol I dont think you get really anything for catching a state and or world record bass, but alot of media attention for an hour or 2 then you'd go back to work the next day
No wind I'm a kayak bass guy wind has no purpose for me other then push me in circles
Jeez brother!!!! Them mitts you got are Squatch hands!!!!😳 It may just be the camera but your hands look GINORMOUS!!!!! Sorry brother. Couldnt help it. In all seriousness though,…I bet you have a hard time finding gloves. That new SlapFighting could be your calling. You would be feared the world over. Pays decent too.
I loved it
IGFA… Not IFGA.
Wow my biggest is 11,3lbs, and still fishing for the monsters, thx for the video
A bass in Georgia wouldn't have eggs in June..
Plot twist. Jake Paige caught the fish perry/parry got jealous killed his best friend for the fish so he could feed his family.
I like the story but just work on your storytelling brother
Just stumbled across this video but thank you for taking time to tell this story👍🏼
Man i wish he got that beuty mounted but glad he was able to feed his family with it at the same time. Also wish there was a video or recording of him talking about it.
