I was using a black/blue football jigs 3/8oz with a rage chunk hopping and dragging constantly down to a channel by the dam in the lake i fish and he slammed it so hard a part of the rod where the bottom of the reel sits into made a cracking noise. he slammed it as i was about to bounce the jig up and hooked himself. such a good fight. didnt know a weight. any guess?

if you have any measurements, there is a fish weight calculator on this site, but take the weights given with a grain of salt. I'm guessing she is about 18-19 inches long that would place her around 2 to 2 1/2 pounds. Congrats

Nice one for sure and fishing the deeper drops alond a dam structure is one of my favorite Big Fish techniques! Have to say that you're using my favorite bait choices for this time of year too, WTG ;)

I know this doesn't always apply because it depends on how the bass has been eating, but assuming that this bass is 18 inches long it should be close to 3.36 lbs on average. The girth of this fish looks pretty average to me. Take a look http://www.tpwd.stat...th_weight.phtml
