I think this will be a really neat experiment... what have you personally, actually, landed double digits on? Doesn't matter what your brother, father, friend, cousin, etc... caught one on, what have YOU done? Also, include the numbers of fish on each. This isn't about how many you've caught so people respect you, I want to get a final tally of total bass caught on each type of bait at the end. We'll tally in say, 3 days.  Also, if you can include how long (in years) you've been using each of those baits, maybe we can get a rough connection between how long a bait was used (in years) as compared to how many its caught for each of us.

Mine came on:

8" swimbaits (23 fish) 6 years

6" swimbaits (1 fish) 5 years

black/brown chatterbait (1 fish) 1 year

brown/orange jig (1 fish) 16 years

Sweet Beaver in Big Texan (1 fish) 3 years

Handpoured 4" watermelon Creature (1 fish) 1 year

If you haven't landed a double digit that's ok, list your biggest bass and what bait but please specify that it wasn't a double digit so it doesn't get counted in the final tally.

For me if your talking smallmouth none were double digits but trophy fish none the less

Can I add one more?

Today with Texas Rigged with a V&M 9 Super Ringer worm black neon. On my second cast a 23 x 20 10.37 lb hawg.

Catt, that's awesome! Congratulations! I'm going to leave this up a few more days as many of the guys on this board that are known to catch double digits haven't piped up yet.

I don't really keep count of how many I have caught over ten pounds so I will estimate. I can tell you the majority of my ten pound plus fish have been caught on trickworms on a splitshot rig or jighead on offshore structure fished slow. I am guessing around forty on just the trickworm. I have caught four thirteen pounders and three of those were caught on 1 1/2 oz Ledgebusters in deep water around 20 feet deep. These are the only spinnerbait fish over ten I have caught. The other thirteen pounder was caught on a trickworm on a splitshot rig. I caught one 15lber on a Mattlures bluegill swimming it over a dropoff on the side of a point. I have caught about ten other fish over ten swimming different swimbaits. I have caught around seven or eight more over ten pounds on Mattlures Bluegill while the fish was on a bed. Probably around twenty more on other different lures while fish were on beds. Most were on big tubes and jigs. Two on a jerkbait but lost a bunch more on a jerkbait. Three on topwaters also lost a bunch more on topwaters. Around twenty on deep diving crankbaits. Around fifteen on lipless cranks. And probably around five more on other plastics including one on Senko77's big skinny long Senko he made for me last year. IMHO all lures will catch a ten pounder if they are used at the right time in the right way. The most important thing is location and then fishing the right bait in the right way depending on the location and the conditions.

I don't really keep count of how many I have caught over ten pounds so I will estimate.

Don't you want people to like you?  If so, just stop!  You're killing me!
