My biggest to date is 11lb 9oz. I caught it back in the 70’s at Arkabutla Lake in Mississippi using a white Tennessee Shad Balsa wood in Spring time at the mouth of a creek that runs into the lake. ---

I caught a 5lb. 1oz today at valentines pond. My best in years. Any bass over 19" here in North East Arkansas is considered very nice. Pic below: [inline 3.7.2012.20.JPG]
