I finally got out one afternoon this week in the midst of a stretch of the nicest weather we've seen this season. I only had three, but one was 3#+, and this one weighed in at 8lbs 15 oz, a personal best for largemouth in 60+ years of fishing. She inhaled a chatterbait with a curly tail trailer. A quick pic, a quick weigh-in, and then she swam quickly away. By all indications, the bass had spawning on their mind until the bottom fell out of our weather. The second cold front within two days just blew thru, with another coming right behind it along with a string of 4-5 mornings around freezing. Regardless, a good sign of things to come. ?

Great job, and an obvious fish of a lifetime!

 

Congrats!  

Monster! Well done.

Well you knocked that one out of the park!  Thank you for putting her back.  I'm looking at that profile and thinking she's gonna put on even more lbs.  Tell us what she ways next spring!

Great fish! That one is worth fishing 60 years for.

Dood! Beauty.  
 

kudos for not holding her out way in front like some of us:). 

Congratulations @PawleysDude on your new Personal Best and beautiful bucketmouth! Great job sir and continued good fishing!

Congrats!
 

Well Done!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Great bass.

 

I have to give you credit for being completely honest, but please exercise a tiny bit of fisherman's prerogative, and add an ounce to the official weight of that bass.  I do not believe there has ever been or will be a bass that is 8 pounds 15 ounces.  I'm sure you scale was off, It would be more inline  with standard traditional fishing customs, if you referred to the fish as a nine pound bass.

That’s a spicy meat-a-ball ! Congratulations on your 9#er .
