Brian Hammett just caught the 2nd-biggest bass in the history of the Florida Trophy Catch program.

His fish weighed 15 pounds, 13 ounces and was 29 inches long, 22 inches around.

The monstrous bass came from Orange Lake, a legendary fish factory in the north-central region of the state. The lake seems to be on a strong rebound over the last couple of years following years of low water.

Might be a good place for that summer road trip.
