Cool fish, they pull even harder than an equivalent-sized smallmouth!

That a powerful looking tail on that dude. Are they a pure strain or mix? I heard a lot on fishing for them but this is one of the few pics I have seen of the up close.

It's a valid species, somewhat closely related to a group consisting of Suwanee, Guadalupe, and largemouth bass. They're entirely restricted to the Apalachicola River drainage in AL, FL, and GA.

Very nice Bass! I love that area and would to explore some of the non-salt drainages.
