That Was Definitely an 8-Pounder (Light) – USA-Made Unisex Jersey Tee

$30.36$33.66

Every angler has a story about the one that got away, and somehow, that fish just keeps getting bigger. “That Was Definitely an 8-Pounder” is for the fishermen who know that sometimes the best catches are the ones that slip away—whether they broke off at the boat, spit the hook at the last second, or just never quite made it to the net. Part of the “Bass Tales: Excuse Edition” line, this tee pokes fun at the classic tournament-day heartbreak and the tall tales that follow.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • USA-Made Quality – Crafted with premium materials for unbeatable comfort and durability.
  • Ultra-Soft Cotton – Made from 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton for a lightweight, breathable feel. (Heather colors contain polyester for added softness.)
  • Lightweight & Comfortable – 4.2 oz/yd² (142 g/m²) fabric keeps you cool and comfortable all day.
  • Modern Fit – A sleek, retail-style cut designed for all-day wear.
  • Built to Last – Shoulder-to-shoulder taping and side seams provide structure and durability.
  • Bright & Fun – A light colorway that ensures your fish stories shine just as much as your fishing skills.

Because every lost fish was definitely an 8-pounder… at least.
