Well guys I've been trying to catch a big bass and I finally did it!

Went out today and threw a 12" worm for a hour or so with no success so I switched to a 1/2oz black and blue structure jig with a Big bite baits craw trailer and caught her!! Thanks guys! Bassresource has made me such a better angler and I couldn't have done it without yall...

The more I tried targeting big bass the more I realized it wasn't for me... So this ends my big bass quest. Its tough, going hours without a bite waiting for that one good one is hard on your mind.

An old rusty scale we had said 5lbs for what its worth, that's a PB for me, I finally broke 5!!!

Another picture without the straight arm trick hahaha

Congrats on your new PB.

That's a great fish! Nice work!

Nice fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PB's are sweet but they are meant to be broken. Congrats.

Well I'm not done trying to catch big bass! I'm just done trying to solely target the biggest bass in a body of water, I'm gonna go back to targeting that balance between size and numbers...

Well done. WTG!! You kept at it. Your quest has only just begun.  

Nice job. You deserve it.

That's a good feeling. Congrats!

Why stop at one?  Repeat what you did and look for the same conditions and cover and see if you can't put another one in the boat.  

The search is never over!

Congrats on a nice fish.

Nice fish!

Your quest for your FIRST big bass is over... Congrats on an awesome fish!

Your face about split with that smile! lol

reminds me of how blessed I am to fish where i fish

Looks like a good lookin' 5 pounder to me.. .. but the quest is never over

..cause the quest is to catch fish

The guy from Bigmouth said it best.. hes excited everytime he catches a fish.. and I feel the same way

CONGRATS

20 inches

Anything 5+ is totally validating of all our ridiculous obsession... Once you've pulled one in, it all makes sense

Congrats on your PB. Is that a grumman boat?

Idk what the brand is its just a Jon boat Lol...

I wouldnt go poundage, I'd say anything 19-20"-ish+

We are talking fish who can easily take out younger bass

and btw that cyprus swamp you fishin', I could throw cigar topwaters all day for some monsters

Congratulations on your PB!

You do know PB's are almost always temporary, so good luck beating this one.

It reminded me of my Grumman boat about 25 years ago with a Mariner on the back..

 

Good luck on your next PB.
