Gomez’s latest brush with the bass occurred on Jan. 22, while he was fishing with a buddy on a public dock — the exact same dock where he caught the big bass in 2023, and again in 2025. And both times, the bass was released back into Lake Alan Henry in different locations more than two miles away from Gomez’s lucky dock.

Robbins caught a few keepers, but Gomez wasn’t getting much action, so he switched over to his bass rod.
