My other pick would be some kind of jetty rock fish. But who ever took the pic needs a better camera!

it could also be a highbred. years ago in Pennsylvania we were at a lake that had highbred bass, a cross between largemouth and smallmouth.
as for the picture quality, i can see two things with that also. it is either a very old print that was scanned with a cheap scanner, or was taken with a camera phone, and sent to a computer and printed, then the print was scanned and saved.

Yeah sorry for the picture quality. It's a scan of a picture that was already bad to begin with. That's enlarged by about 50%.
Here's the reason I ask: I need to determine the fish type, and if that wish holds any sort of record. It's for a class project. The only other info I have is that the boy is about 10 years old, so I need to find out if that fish is a record in that age group.
Any ideas on where to find a list of fishing records for the northwest US?

Undoubtedly a small mouth bass. I have caught many there myself. As for the size----very nice fish but when it is held at arms length in fornt of the boy it appears much larger than it actually is----nice effect though. Any smallmouth over about 18" is considered very nice in that area for reference.
