10" Power Worm- Plum color, 5/0 gamakatsu EWG hook, rigged weightless texas-style. Largemouth out of a private farm pond. Don't know how much he weighed, but not over 4 lbs. Right before the big one I pulled out a 9" largemouth on the same rig!! Never thought I'd catch a 9" bass on a 10" worm!! They sure can be greedy sometimes.

Lucky Craft Pointer 128 chartruese shad. Pomme De Terre Lake. Up the river. Around ten pounds

8 lb. 11 oz LM, Bull Shoals on March 31, 1978 on a Wiggle Wart in a color Storm no longer makes on a very, very wind beaten bank ( Cow Pen Hollow I think ) followed on the next cast ( after my heart started again ) by a 9lb. 3 oz LM on the same bait. Both fish weighed on semi-official scales at Oakland Boat Dock back when Lenny ( Mr. Black Max ) owned it. Had several other fish ( 5 or 6 that I could do NOTHING with on heavy baitcasting tackle ) break me off or pull the hooks on that magical day.

6lb 13 oz SM, (already spawned out so can only imagine what she weighed with eggs in her), on a Black Spook on a very cloudy day in May 2004 on the flats across from Point 19 @ Table Rock. Weighed on a proven accurate digital scale at boatside and quickly and carefully released.

type .. conditions would be helpful too (i.e. bluff side , shallows , channel, river) no need to come off that favorite lure name just a general

description (i.e. buzzbait, jerkbait, plastic worm.........) you get the idea , make it easy to categorize . no need for size or story just your personal best bass ever

Lure and situation.

White spinnerbait on march 2nd water was very cold, ice just barely off the water, in a small lake on a Conservation area. I was casting to an isolated tree about 100 feet from shore. I was fishing on my lunch hour (which is a good time of day to fish in early spring) with just the equipment I keep behind my truck seat so no scale, tapemeasure or camera available of course, but the bass weighted about 8 lbs. -SS
