In my opinion that is a STRIPER...If not, you threw away a record...I would have had it checked.....The STATE record for a HYBRID STRIPED BASS is just shy of 26 POUNDS..Look it up. http://www.outdooralabama.com/state-record-freshwater-fish Biggest Hybrid I ever caught was around 13 pounds...But the state record Hybrid was caught in the SIPSEY FORK. Most all stripes I caught were on LOGAN or LAY....Biggest STRIPER on LAY was 48 pounds. We caught them at night on a crank bait in spring fed creeks in June/July and August. The biologist told me that Stripe was probably landlocked when they built the concrete Lay Dam back in 1967. http://gadsdenmessenger.com/2014/10/10/lay-dam-has-rich-history/ . He estimated that fish to be about 46 years old due to a scale he took from it. Caught in 1998. None the less..... VERY NICE FISH SIR !!! CONGRATS TO YOU on a GREAT DAY!!!

It was renovated and expanded in 1967.

That's a saltwater striper. Looks nothing at all like a hybrid. Some stripers just have broken lines.
Yeah c’mon. Daniel White

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

What a pig, it was near as deep as it was long. Huge fish. Yup, I concur. Hybrid is going to be more football shaped than that, every time. My buddies and I have caught several large hybrids but If we caught one that size, there would be phones blowing up everywhere. By large Hybrids, I mean 15-21 lbs. My personal best is just shy of 18. Stripers now, we don't get too excited until the scale hits 30+. To the OP. Congrats on a great STRIPER.
