 Congrats on breaking your PB twice in one day. My guess would be about 6 lbs. 

congrats on the double PB.  sounds like a fun day!!

3lb on a black/blue spinner in muddy water. 

2.3 and 2.2 

4lbs on a bladed jig. was in the thick pads. crazy fight pulling her through that slop.

3.7lbs on the Strike King burner. because speed kills.

My granddaughter and me got out for a little while before dark and she got 2. This is the bigger one.

Great day on the water Mike, keep the home fires burning

Thanks.What I love doing.When I take her I try to remember to make it about her,so she'll have so much fun she'll keep going with me. Her older brother is good at it too,but at present he's been bit by the video game bug.

Very sound approach.

Granddaughter & grandfather = Dynamic Duo!

Monday was a nice calm day on Lk St Clair. Had it been June it would have been a great topwater bite all day. Here's a chrome/blue Red Eye shad smallie.

The spirit of Buck Perry is alive and well in central Indiana  Snuck out after work for 2 hours. First structure spot, first pass (on the troll), this 4lb. plus largemouth engulfed the bait. Happy camper - picked up the crappie rod for the rest of the evening 

 

Saw this one crash the shallows on some shad. He took the squarebill in two casts. It was so windy, I had to cast into it inland to get it to fall in his zone a few feet off the bank. 3.2lbs. 

 

This is the second bass of this size I've caught in the past few days with a bloody tail. Information seems to point in either direction in terms of its sex. Is there a current definite answer?

 

I've been catching a ton of bass lately because its mostly post-spawn. Unfortunately, I think my best in the last 2 weeks has been maybe 3lbs. Stopped by a retention pond on my way back from the gym. Caught this one on second cast w/ zoom black horny toad near a drain after noticing a top water hit there. Weighed in at 7lb9oz. Didn't measure, but probably 24".

Releasing her did make me sad. I'm pretty sure I lost a larger bass (26"-28" but also skinny) last Friday on Alligator Lake. The bass was ripping drag and pulled my yak over to some brush... got pretty close to landing her, maybe 4 ft away. Wish I had my anchor ready.

Another nice fish this evening. Caught on the watermelon slice 5 inch senko.

Hey folks.  New to the forum and saw this thread.   I live in SW Florida for many years but I'm a novice bass angler of about 3 years.   Most of my fishing is from my kayak in smaller hard to reach spots.  Just pulled this linked in on Sunday morning. Lakes and ponds are low due to no rain in months but the bass are biting.  Not sure how much this linked weighs since my scale died, but it measured 25"L x 18.5" girth.  Put up a great fight:)

Nice one!  And welcome to the forum! 

slipped out for a little session right before dark last night....  not much action, missed one really good bite on my t rig.  was working my way back to the truck and tossing the MB giant dog x in white python.  tossed past a point, twitched it 2-3 times and this spot nearly ripped the rod out of my hands!  3.25lber and i caught it about 100 yards away from the 3.5lb spot i caught about 2 weeks ago!

and i had to get my obnoxious selfie with my heels hat for all my haters, you know who you are !!  @kickerfish1 @Catt @whitwolf

 

 

Boy that shade of blue is sure ugly! At least you have better tastes in fishing gear!

@buzzed bait that's bass abuse!

@buzzed bait Justin, great story and fish! The hat sucks! lol

Nice pig I caught tonight in a murky , large chocolate milk pond. 1 of 13 or so... All on a "jika" (or jig) rigged structure bug and keitech crazy flapper... Burning it on the bottom like a swing head.

 

Picture doesn't do it justice ! She had a fat belly and was full of something. Sunfish I'm assuming.

alright ,I give! going to have to get me some of those, can I tell my wife it is your fault? nice catch!

 

I like Zman TRD especially the deal color. Gotta stock up some myself since I keep losing my rigs to trees brushes and rocks.

My brother caught this 22.5", 7lb smally on Ky Lake out of the back of my boat a couple weeks ago.

WOW! nice fish! now throw him in for taking your fish. "no just kidding" I would be just as happy if my brother would have caught it. congrats!

Man, I'm getting jealous. Haven't been able to go out. Either the weather sucks, I get sick, or I go to work.
