Smells like fish Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Your biggest bass, what rod/reel did you catch on? Mine came on a $39 Walmart Abu Garcia Black max combo that is now 10-12 years old. Definitely places it as having a special place in my heart!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papajoe222 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Mine was with a BPS 6ft. Med (I forget the model) paired with a TD Advantage and good ole 12lb Original Stren. That was my topwater combo for years. It and a Spook put a lot of fish in my boat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User ATA Posted April 28 Super User Share Posted April 28 Thats very funny question, I am sure most of us here got our PB on cheapest combo. I got mine on this Daiwa D-Wave with 8lb test cheap nylon and since I had no drop-shot weight I just comprmise and bite done split weight at the end of my line :), The only right thing there was my brand new red daiichii #4 hook, Everything else was shaky and I cought my two 8lb bass with that day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRiver Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 A Mitchell Avocet, 6ft medium (Walmart special, $39.98) with a BPS 7 1/2 ribbon tail, watermelon/ pearl-garlic. Broke my PB twice that day. I had been at a 5lb for a long time, then I caught one over 6lb, 20 minutes later I got one just over 7lb. I didn’t need the boat to home, I felt like I could have walk on water all the way home, man was I pumped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBBrandon Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I caught my PB (8lbs) on a DC734 with a Zillion SV throwing a Booyah spinnerbait at Lake Ray Robert’s. Have caught quite a few 5-8lb fish in one particular pond with a 6’6” medium Ugly Stik with a 35 size Pflueger President throwing bluegill cutbait for catfish. Idk why but that particular pond doesn’t usually spit out numbers, but it spits out size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
