Biggest of the year?

Featured Replies

Im just wondering how everyone has done so far this year.  Im from upstate Ny so fishing is starting to wind down.  So my questions are location, biggest and what you got it on?  

Thanks

Anthony

8lbs 5oz. White/Chart double willow spinnerbait. Caught it off a point in less than 3 ft of water.

9 lbs 3 oz. on a big banjo minnow to believe it or not

Largemouth: 27 1/4 inches, estimated weight ~12 lbs. I caught the bass at a public pond about ten minutes before sunrise, 9/04/05 on a Norman Fat Boy, bluegill pattern. This is also my personal best.

Smallmouth: Just over 8 lbs. I caught this bass around 11:00, 1/15/05 on a live shiner on the Tennessee. An hour earlier I caught the other smallmouth in my avatar, it weighed just over 7 lbs and was my personal best at the time.

Brown trout: Just under 10 lbs. I caught this trout on the White river, 6/11/05 on a sculpin.

I havn't caught a real "hawg" yet in 2005.  Biggest so far is 6lbs 2oz's caught on a jig

I got my best a few weeks ago, Oct. 10th on Lake Guntersville.  She weighed 6-10 and hit a black/blue 1 1/2 oz. All Terrain jig while pitching clumps of grass.  I'm sure that will be my biggest since I'm now back in Michigan and the decent weather is winding down.

8lbs, 26.5" long....she was skinny.  Caught on a lucky craft g-splash popper in american shad pattern.

Around 6 pounds, ate a 5/16 ounce Missourri Craw Eakins Jig with. That was way back in the spring, and the picture is still on my camera waiting to be developed.

Biggest bass - 8lb 2oz

Heaviest 5 fish limit - 25lb 11oz

Biggest accomplishment - 180 days on the water, skunked 3 times.

The biggest I caught this year was a 7lb.3oz LM on a Strike King White Tandum Willowleaf blade spinnerbait.My 14 yearold son caught an 8 lb. and a 9 lb. LM on a Chartruse tandum willowleaf blade spinnerbait and a Gold-black w/orange Rattlinrogue Floater.

This (almost a year) years was 6lbs.

The 16th however, I caught 2 5lb'ers around a boat slip on Okemah, and we would have won the tourney that day, had we entered.

This upcoming weeks though, I am going to land my piglet for the year.

5lbs 9oz caught on a Red Shad Zoom Brush Hog on a small lake in MD. Still considering making a trip down pfunk's way before the year is up though so there is room for improvement there!

Way to go guys!! Great fish everyone.   ;D

We will have to dig this out of the archive next year and do a comparison post.

a little over 5...21 inches..Caught on Booyah spinnerbait...its my personal best currently, but jeez laweez...you guys are killing me...I catch a lot of 4's and 3-1/2's..just never really crack open anything bigger than 5. I dont feel too bad though. The biggest bass i have ever seen caught on the mississippi on my local forum is around 5.5 pounds and that was by a really good fisherman.

Smallies...whew i really need to catch up. I just dont fish 'em much. I have plenty of access to great smallie fishing..just never really make it around to fish them. Biggest is probably around 3-/12 pounds :-[ :P
