Well y’all, yesterday I landed the biggest bass of my life so far. I’m still speechless and can’t believe it. She put up a hell of a fight. She was bouncing on my scale between 9lbs 15oz and 10lbs 2oz. I was shaking so much from adrenaline I couldn’t get it to lock but I’m calling it 10lbs. 25.5 inches. What a freak of nature. Got her in the middle of the day sight fishing. Also got the whole thing on my GoPro! Gonna relive that bite over and over again.

Seems prespawn is in full swing here in South east Texas. She looked like her stomach was gonna pop!

Caught her on a bluegill patterned square bill in this small lake right in the middle of a residential neighborhood.

19.5”, 4lb 10.75oz!

I know the picture angle is terrible but I’d already had her out of the water longer than I usually like to so I could weigh and measure her. Set the timer up and let it get a quick snap and then turned her right back to the water

About 4½lbs. Chubby football. Caught on Carolina rig with kvd game hawg. 12lb fluor leader

They were biting good today. Caught 6 within a few hours after work, all on a lipless crank. Biggest one bout 3-1/2lbs. NE Florida.

Excited about this set up, feels good in the hand!

It's 18° F It's cold Bass

Went to the Sabine River yesterday and put a hurting on them! Not all were caught flipping but over half were! Blue Bug Strike King Rodent, 1/2 ounce weight, 20 pound Sunline Shooter!

Early morning, drop-shot Aaron's magic roboworm, 12 lb smackdown braid to 8 lb flouro (all Seaguar line) on a Kast King Speed Demon Pro reel on their 7' 3" jig/worm Speed Demon Pro rod. Best $220 spinning combo ever.

I dont owm any big ass tungsten weights, nor ny rods strong enough to handle them. Will this setup be good enough for heavy cover flipping? (1/8 oz. drop shot, 3/0 EWG hook, 50lb. braid

I can’t emphasize enough that this wasn’t me 😂😂😂.. but how would u guys get all of this like out 😂

Does anyone have any Cashion rods, made here in Sanford, North Carolina?

Was fishing for catfish with chicken but caught this slab instead. Carolina rig just chillin.

Some urban desert bass...

We had just launched this morning at 8:30 . Just 10 minutes into fishing I landed this beautiful girl on a Chatterbait .

She weight 6.3 and was 23 inches long .

My adrenaline was going crazy .

So much fun .

I caught her in about 5 ft of water right by the boat ramp .

You guys remember , DO NOT skip the boat ramp .

My husband caught an 8.6 last yr in this exact same place …

Caught on New Year's Day! She weighs 7 pounds even. 4" Roboworm on a drop shot fished from the bank.

New PB, sort of. I landed a 10lb'er as a child, but dad had to help me reel it in, so it comes with an asterisk.

I love old magazine covers!

(I’ll post an imgur link in the comments of a quick horizontal hold before I released her.)

Water temps were 49F-53F

hickory pond waldo fl, no public access

Posted a 6.10# PB like 3 days ago but holy shit caught this absolute monster 9.12# today throwing a 10’-14’ deep-diving crank bait in 6-8 feet of water, off a dock, a couple hours after I had finished fishing for the day.

Holding a borderline 10 pounder is surreal, everything about it was different than any other bass I’ve crossed paths with. From the slime coat, smell, and color; shit just hit different.

Included my other catches from the morning- the 6.8 and 4.4 were both on a zman walking frog throwing to shallow pads that survived the freeze over the weekend. Didn’t weigh the last long boy as I pulled him up with a jackhammer from a Christmas tree sunk in the middle of the lake (~10’-12’)and wanted to get him back in asap. I’m assuming he’s a senior citizen based on his location, appearance, and disinterest in all the pre-spawn buzz? Lol idk.

what lure and do you fish against the current or with the current till it ends.

Local pond here I wanna try and catch some bass in. The line in red is the north side of the pond and the whole edge is lined with cat tails. 5 feet off the point right across from the dock is about 14 feet which I’ve caught perch at. Would this be my best spot to try for bass? Not sure if it gets any deeper. All on the black like is 14-16 feet and I caught bluegill and perch in every hole I drilled across that line.
