Until now I have never owned a scale but my two biggest where about 5lber's. I fish Central and Northern Michigan so they are pretty big for up here.

#1. Middle of the day in the center of a small gravel pit by my house on a Berkly crank bait I don't think they even make them any more...I can't find them any where.

#2 1am in the morning in 8ft of water on a Booya pond magic spinner bait with a Gary Yamamoto TTHG as a trailer.

August, Megabass Topwater PopX, 8. lbs 9 oz

I think it was March, or sometime around there in 1986. Piru lake in so.cal..I pitched a chartruse and white stike king spinner bait into a drop off and nailed a 5lb.6oz lmb.

I plan on gettin a better fish this year..

Yellow Magic Magnum. Bone Color. 7lbs 4oz. Nothing like seeing a big bass exploding a top water.

Memorial Day weekend 2007

5 lb.- 4 oz. LM on a Zoom z-nail.

4" Berkley Power Worm - pumpkin/chart

9.4 lbs on Joe Pool Lake, TX

Baby Brush Hog.  T-Rigged.  Watermelon green as I recall.  9 lbs.

Strike king wild thang july 2005 pitching in lily pads 7lb 1oz.

With all the tons of tackle I have....

I caught my biggest bass on a 1/8 oz. Black Maribou Road Runner while I was fishing for panfish---from shore.  I didn't have a scale on me, but there was no doubt that fish was pushing 7lbs.  And for NY that is a very nice bass.

My Partner got her 9 lber early in the morning on a buzzbait.  I got my 5 lber on a chatterbait.  

I don't know but it must have had magical properties because by the time I got the bass to the boat, it had grown to over twice it's original size. ;D

Late august on a weightless yum dinger in shad color. 9 pounds.

mid june. On a flat close to deep water. Berkley Texas rigged 5" sinking minnow. crawling it on the bottom. 26 incher. just shy of 8lbs.

Mine was in a small pond, march, 2000.  For some reason, i didn't right the day in my log. 25 and 1/4 almost 6 on my scale.  7in floating rapala gold w/ black back.  It was in the evening, almost dark.
