For the second straight year I didnt catch a big bass . My biggest was around   five lbs on a hand poured buzzbait.    Sept 9.

A homemade 1/8oz shakyhead with a Zoom Magnum Finesse worm in redbug color, 7.43lbs on 1/2/2018. 

 

A 1/2oz Booyah Bankroll Jig in Money with a YUM Craw Chunk in Crawfish as a trailer.

 

10 pounds, 5 ounces.  Biggest bass I've ever caught in my life.  I'm hoping to beat it this year. 

Not sure what it weighed. Guessing around 8ish. Caught on a Carolina rigged speed craw.

 

Belly weighted fluke. 7 pound 11 ounces. It is the fish in my profile picture

BoneHead Tackle Ring Worm - 7" black blue flake  ?

 

 

Only 18" caught on a Creme topwater stickbait in walk the shad

Caught my biggest this year on a frog. Came in at 6.7. No pictures, so I guess it didn’t really happen. 

 

Funniest thing about it was I caught it in a very heavily pressured city pond, so not many of the locals believed me, either. Until I showed em pictures of a few other 5+ pounders I caught out of the same pond. 

Biggest Brown Bass  of 2018 came in August on topwater of all things - 6-4 on a Pop Max.

 

My Biggest Green Bass 11-5 came in October (south of the border) on a Strom Wild Eye Shad 6 inch.

 

Good Times

Caught a 7# 2oz on a Tenn Shad Bandit 100 at the Rez, my biggest there. Sorry no picture but after that I went and bought a Go Pro. ?

Caught one over 6lbs on a magnum rage bug Texas rigged

I think it was one of these

My biggest smallie of the year, just under 6lb came on a Berkley Gulp minnow on a drop shot, biggest largemouth, right at 5lb came on a Texas rigged Berkley maxscent creature hawg. 

No real big ones this year, got one about 8 on a swim jig and one a tad smaller on a chatter. 

8.1 . Caught on july 19 on a 5 inch torn up senko. I think it was watermelon slice color.

Dobyns Beast spinnerbait. 6.97 pounds.

2018 was a really bad year for me. Didn't catch anything over 3#. My biggest LMB and SMB both caught on baby brush hogs.

I had a bad year, also. I caught less than 10 fish all year. 

 

My my biggest bass was around 6.5lbs and was caught on a weightless Zoom fluke. 

Booyah Frog. I forget the exact weight but it was right around 4-4

 

My biggest bass ever 4lbs. Caught on a Savage Gear 5 inch baby bass paddle tail swim bait in the Sabine River near Orange, Texas. 

8.5lb on Dirty Jigs Pitching jig, 1/2 oz. pond bug color.

 

Best smallie 6-1 on a pointer 128 in Aurora red.

 

 

Best largemouth 9-4 caught on an indigenous swimbait in gold shiner color.

6.3 pounds on a Spro Little John

6.25 on the Ned rig 1/16 oz head 6# fluoro

 

 

Just an observation ....in 23-25 posts only one was caught on a jig.

 

I’ve always considered the jig to be a big bass lure and I have caught some big ones with jigs....but not my biggest.

Only 2 was over 10lbs and one was caught on a jig....
