Dwight, love the Lott Brothers cap.

..and nice fish...

JoePhish thanks. I bought that hat & a tee shirt from Lotts this winter. SouthFLA recommended the place. I figured as long as I 'm wearing that hat Robert will know that is a current photo not one of last years. LOL

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.

- Motivation is one thing, but I'm still waiting for ice out.

You're the Man Dwight but I'm coming for ya !

A-Jay

Hopefully I will be able to cull it? Its a start though! Maine Record smallmouth 8lbs even

3.81 / 8 x 100 = 47.63

Its the one in my right hand:

New York

6 lbs 3 oz caught on a jig off a steep rock wall

6.1875/11.25x100=55

Really nice job, Dean!

It took me a while but i finally caught one worth entering in the competition. My partner was so tore up over the fish he cut my head off in the picture Anyway this fish wieghed 8lbs 2oz on my scale and the state record is 13lbs10oz

8.125/13.625x100 equals 59.63.

Just as a friendly reminder. You can't mix tenths with ounces. Divide the fishes weight in ounces by 16 ounces( to the pound) to get the proper decimal. bflow_6's 8lb- 2ounces fish is 2/16 for 8.125 divided by 13lb -10 ounces is 10/16 for 13.625. 8.125/13.625x100 equals 59.63.

The reigning champion has spoken. You keep em strait Dwight.

Heck of a nice fish right there, bflow.

Well, I got a few decent fish yesterday with one that was probably around 6 lbs but when I whipped out the scale it was dead. I did get a picture and posted it in the "My Fishing Trip" forum. See the thread below.

With the Missouri largemouth record at 13 lbs 14 oz I would have still been below 50 percent so I wouldn't be in the hunt for the win. Looks like there have been some 60 - 65 percent catches so we have our work cut out for us. I still have a month and a half and I replaced the battery in my scale today. Whoopee!

Here is an update from today. 5lb-12 oz smallie. 5.75 divided by 8.50 Pa record X100= 67.65

Here is an update from today. 5lb-12 oz smallie. 5.75 divided by 8.50 Pa record X100= 67.65

That thing is gorgeous!

Dwight is in it to win it!

I have a borderline unhealthy appreciation for the fish Dwight gets into.

Here is a new update from today May 4th. 5lb-15oz smallie that fought like a much bigger fish. 5.9375 divided by 8.50x100 =s 69.85.

This fish came in 15 minutes later, 6lb-3oz smallie. That's 6.1875 divided by 8.50 ( PA record) X100=s 72.79.

Simply incredible Dwight, you definitely have momentum on your side!

Good lord Dwight!

OK Dwight is disqualified. I'm not sure why, but I am working on a good reason.

WOW - Dwight is cookin' with gas! But then - he's Dwight...and we're not !!

OK Dwight is disqualified. I'm not sure why, but I am working on a good reason.

Dwight's on a roll. Seventy two percent is going to be hard to beat. I don't want to say game over, but he's making it pretty tough. I just calculated 73 percent of the Missouri largemouth (13 lb 14 oz)and smallmouth (7 lbs 2 oz) records and I need to catch a 10 lb 2 oz largemouth or a 5 lb 2 oz smallmouth to pass him.

Just give me a chance to tighten the screws.....I'll be putting the pressure on Dwight. Heck, we might even join forces to destroy all your hopes, LOL.

:ph34r:

Dwight should be disqualified...how can anyone compete with those monsters?

I'm on the Board - This sweet smallie lunched a 3/8 oz hand tied jig

Here's her score ~ 4.75/9.25 x 100 = 51.35

I'm happy but like everyone, I'm hoping to up grade.

Of course, Dwight has taken the "Up Grading" concept to a whole new level . . .

A-Jay

Dwight is to Smallies what Derek Jeter is to good looking women...
