Here's the smaller of the 2 I caught last Summer. This one was 6LB 10OZ and I think he was like 23". He's still roaming around out there somewhere unless someone's took him since. Either way her fish is a good fish, anything over 6LB is pretty good and anything over about 7 and half for public water is really good! I want a 19+ crappie now though. I think I've only caught one that big and it was years ago.

I figured I'd post the other one too since I posted the smaller one. This one was like 23.5" and weighed in at 8LB 13OZ, my biggest and he's on the wall now.

Skeeter you ain't impressive till ya pass 10 lbs. Ever see a 28'' Bass ?







And yes I caught in in Arkansas.

Way to take out those crappie killers guys, good job, there otta be a bounty on those things

Nim a lot of people have never even caught a bass over 6LB so I'd say it don't take a 10 to make you somebody! How old were you in that picture anyways?? Back in the early 2000's and in the 90's I caught way better fish than I do now....more people take em home now, more people bass fish now, way more tournaments, ect. The pressure is worse. I used to count how many over 5 or 6 I'd catch in a Spring, it's not like that now! Especially on lesser populated lakes. Just because the lakes are bigger sure don't equal better fishing. I've seen lots of public smaller lakes way better than these HS lakes! Once again when you talk to the local pro's and they can't find the bigger fish, they ain't there!

Put on that same hat and you ain't changed a bit.

You notice something about everyone of those pictures. NO LONG ARMS. People know when they got a goodun. Everyone of those are nice fish. You could probably can those and have some great fish patties.

Let me see if I can find my "big bass" pic.

Biggest I've ever caught. Maybe 4lbs actual . Light bream tackle, 4lb test, #8 bream hook, on a cricket, no net, offa that dock in the back ground. I figure with the tackle handicap figured in, I would estimate it at about 18 lbs.

Tell your sis thats a nice bass
