Just topped my best of the year last night. 

4.5 lbs. Pretty good for a northern LM!

 

A-Jay

WOW! Lots of nice fish!

Best bass is still my first fish of the year, from back in early May: a little over 4lb (best estimate, given the reliability of my old scale)

Been a slow year for size this one was 6 & change.

Been a better year size wise for me but only one so far that has hit the 20" mark.

 

Biggest Smallmouth 4 lbs 13 oz from Vermont

 

Biggest Largemouth 7 lbs 13 oz from Maine

 

 

Not to bad for Northern New England

I make Joke

This one, almost 3 1/4 lb, and it's my PB so far.

I hate to admit it, but I don't even think I've caught a fish this year.

Time to change that

I wish I could change it. Maybe I'll get one today. I'm taking the yak back out today. I got a paddle holder on it, but don't have waterproof silicone or a crate for my rod holder, so it has to wait.

Just take a 1/2oz Black/Blue jig with a Rage Chunk trailer, on 17 lb Flouro and yous will catch something...

I've gotta buy some jigs. Don't have any at the moment. Also gotta buy some spinnerbaits, crankbaits, soft plastics, etc.

Got my PB at 6.76lbs. Might take me a few years to beat this one. 

 

Caught a bunch of 4+lbers this year.  I lost a 7+ next to the boat two weeks ago.  Best of year was in a club tourney, weighed in at 4.64lbs......

Nope.

 

3/8 oz arkie jig (brown-green-purple) with a rage craw (summer craw/ watermelon red) on 12# Tatsu.

Caught in a neighborhood pond in the Kissimmee area on vacation on a 4'' swimbait.

 

Wow that`s a PIG! Lol! 

Full on beast mode for sure!

My biggest smallie of the year 4.5 pounds, caught on a custom painted 110+1 in pink/white/chartreuse.
