Giant Lake Shasta Spotted Bass not far off World Record!
Our old friend Scott Green is one of the top bass anglers in all of California. If you ever see his name in a tournament you’re fishing at places like Clear Lake, Berryessa or Shasta, start thinking about second place! To prove my point, check out these massive spotted bass from Lake Shasta he just caught, including a new lake record 8.85 pounder, which is a pound and change off the World Record!
Nice work, dude!

Nice fish, I caught a spot on Shasta in a tournament with Shasta Cascade Bass Anglers in 2001, it was a #7.03

January bass can be big….Caught a 7.11 lb spot Jan 21/09 near Packers Bay. Bomber shad crankbait in 12′ water.

Those are Donkey sized spotted bass. Good job. My Biggest at shasta is only a 3 pounder..but just started fishing the lake two summers ago….looking at your photos….i do not doubt that the World Record could be there….
Dennis Schell says
Nice spots! My best so far is a 7.11 pounder caught near Packers Bay in Jan 2009…
Released a nice 16.5″ fish last week from Salt Ck….Probably went near 5 lbs…
