A JAPANESE man was credited on Friday with reeling in the biggest largemouth bass, tying a record that has been in American hands for the past 77 years for the freshwater fish popular among anglers.
The International Game Fish Association (IGFA) confirmed that Manabu Kurita of Aichi, Japan tied US angler George Perry to hold the All-Tackle record for largemouth bass – each weighing 10.12kg.

Congratulations to Manabu Kurita. He is a true trophy hunter dedicated to the pursuit of world record bass like no other. I am proud to say that in the past year he has become one of my closest friends, Another person who helps him a great deal but receives no real credit is Reika Ishaguro who designs his website, communicates his thoughts and wishes to me and others, and also is a great angler in her own right. Manabu and Reika are good friends and you can talk with both of them at my website at World Record Trophy Bass Fishing http://delawaretrophybass.com
Tight lines, and best of luck to all trophy hunters the world over on the next world record. Steve Owner
