If this is a bass I caught my biggest and smallest bass ever in a 2 month span. One of my private ponds I noticed a clump of fry swimming around near the bank so I reached with a tiny net and caught some of them.

 

Fantastic ! It's a lot smaller than my PB.

And here I was bragging about my pbsb yesterday

I've caught some pretty tiny runts over the years, but you're PB has got me beat   

 

Anglers are known for puffing the goods, now we will find out if this is a bidirectional tendency

Don't count if netted

What a hog!

LOOK at that belly,she's full of eggs.LOL

Bass? Or just any fish?

Not the smallest bass but one of the smallest smallmouth I've ever caught. Little guy slammed the bait. That's a massive KVD 1.0 (2" 1/4oz) crankbait that he decided to try to tackle.

Had a pretty similar sized one knock the fire out of a 78 pointer on the same lake a couple years before.

The fish in this thread make my smallest bass look like a lunker. This was caught last summer in a local pond on a 1/16 oz Rapala floating minnow.

 

 

Here it is!

I vote that netting doesn't count, since it wouldn't count for largest PB if you just scooped her up with a net.

 

I would also suggest that all candidates need to be no more than 150% of the length than the lure they were caught on.  This means that most entrants would be caught on crankbaits & topwaters, but I did snag a LM smaller than a football jig once.  I can only imagine that he pecked the head of the jig & then didn't get out of the way when I set the hook.

Bit blurry picture, but here is mine

Mexican bass with an attitude.

 

 

Look at my avatar, that's pretty small. That's a Sexy Dawg Jr. she hit. Pretty aggressive little bass.

 

Dwight, that picture is hilarious.

Cool pictures Guys! I don't have one... But, I caught a 4" FLMB on a 6" golden shiner in the St. John's river... No hook needed. It ( shiner) was stuck in the basses mouth... I couldn't believe it...

Not my smallest, but smallest with a pic!

Guys if they are foul hooked it isn't official! hahaha

Not a bass, but one of his cousins with the same "I bet I can eat it" attitude.
