Here's my first entry. Caught in the Merrimack River, in Bow, NH. The state record smallmouth in NH, is 7lbs,14.5oz. This smallmouth weighed 5lbs,9oz, and was 20.5". I caught her swimming a Rage Craw (prototype color) on a keel-weighted Moaner hook. If my calculations are correct (thanks, Dwight!), my score would be 70.35. I lost one today that was even bigger, so hopefully I will have another entry here soon! Bass boat is hitting the water for the first time this year on Wednesday. I can't wait!

Same fish

caught this one out in the middle of a shallow flat on a lucky craft crankbait with two dudes in another boat right on our tail.

5.3125 lbs / 11.125lbs x 100 = 47.75 points

Its small but I aint SKUNKED !!!!

3.24/12.28 x 100 = 26.38

I caught this one 3/18/11 on a YUM money frog in some weeds. I wish it was as big as it looked in pics.

5.88/16.5x100= 35.63

Those are some hogs! Got out last weekend to the St. Joseph river in S.W. Michigan with my fishing buddy. My 4year old son. Didn't stay out too long. Got a good size smallie and a under 2 lb largemouth.

never think of weighing or measureing before tossing em back. Have a scale and ruler right there. Using a purple/blk 3/8 oz terminator jig no trailer. craw scent.

Went fishing this weekend here in Nebraska, here's my picture:

Oh wait, I didn't catch anything, sat on the boat for 8 hours, got one nibble, tried everything.

you guys with the pictures but no points... are you participating in the contest or what?

Didn't see any rule's on this topic for figuring out your point's.. How's it work.. ?

Season opener is still 4 weeks away for me - but with all the great sticks on BR who can fish, there MUST be at least a few new entries . . . .

11-2 from Lake Hernando (west central FL) during out club tournament.. Last 30 min...lol..

11.2 / 17.4 x 100= 64.36

Bigger pic..

they have to be fish caught during the duration of this competition (daylight on March 15th through dark on June 12th, 2011); the fish in that picture has been your avatar for as long as i remember you being on this board... it doesn't count

OK, I thought this would be a fairly easy switch over. Signup on the other thread, play on this one. Evidently not.

Here are the rules

RULES

1. This is for FUN...

2. Any Black Bass species with a state record is eligible. You must have submitted your entry prior to midnight March 14, 2011.

3. This contest runs from daybreak on March 15th, 2011 to sunset on June 12, 2011.

4. Artificial bait ONLY. If you are sight fishing, the fish must be hooked inside the mouth. All fish must be caught in PUBLIC fishing areas. No private stocked ponds (you own the pond and are raising trophies).

5. Scoring of the fish shall be completed as follows:

Example

FW = fish weight = 10.5 lbs (my pb)

SR = state record Fl = 17.27 lbs

FW / SR x 100 = your score

10.5/17.27x100 = 60.80 rounded to 2 decimals

In order for your fish to count, you must submit a picture, the state record weight for the state the fish was caught in, and an accurate weight of the fish. You can submit fish caught in different States but only your highest score counts. Your fish must be submitted within one week of being caught. (No sandbagging) You may submit as many fish as you want as long as subsequently caught fish score higher. All fish must be submitted before 7 am on June 13th, 2011.

6. You can be disqualified for unsportsmanlike behavior. The definition of "unsportsmanlike" is completely at the discretion of myself and the moderators.

7. Entry Fee - You must post your intention to play on this thread prior to midnight March 14th.

Directors Note-----Have fun, catch fish, and post your results......

And here is the official contestant list. If you are not on this list, sorry, you have to wait for next year.

Season opener is still 4 weeks away for me - but with all the great sticks on BR who can fish, there MUST be at least a few new entries . . . .

A-Jay

Hey A-Jay - I'm trying! I got that 9.06 (62.48 score) back in February but it was before the start of this contest. Just to have an entry - here's the biggest bass I've got since the contest officially started. This fish hit a lipless crank on April 5.

Weight - 5.42 pounds (22"), Tennessee state record - 14.5 pounds. 5.42/14.5x100 = 37.38.

Not a winning entry...but at least an entry!

I forgot to post mine from Monday on here. I wish I would have weighed my second fish, I think it might have been heavier but I forgot about this thread! Anyways 5.7/11.75x100=48.51, I guess I'm on the board at least.

Hopefully get a better one this week!

And there ya go ! Nice work guys - I'll get my first shot at it in just over 3 weeks. (Season Opener here) Thanks for keeping me motivated til then . . . . .

Iknow what you mean, my blood is just boiling to get out there and fish, i already got a gameplan and everything, but my tackle is in need of some serious organization so i guess that will keep me occupied for awhile...sigh, keep the monsters coming guys! help us get through final weeks of...boredom and irratability hehe

5Lbs 8oz on a Black Chatterfrog with a black Swinsenko trailer on one of my increasingly overfished condo ponds. (I consider it public because there is always someone fishing at any given hour.)

It's not a monster by Florida standards because I'm stuck fishing off the shore. Get my butt in a boat and I'll be posting bigger fish. I just wanted an official entry

5.5/17.25x100=31.88

YaY im on the board!! Heres my entry >>>> 5.5 lbs/16.2 SR= 33.95.

Here is my first smallie of this year. caught her yesterday on a jerkbait. She was 19.5 long. Weighed 5lb -7 oz.. That's 5.4375 divided by 8.50 Pa state record times 100 for a score of 63.97. A little motivation for A-Jay.

Dwight, love the Lott Brothers cap.

..and nice fish...
