Hey everyone,
I see that everyone has there PB under there picture, but do you have a picture of your PB! Here is mine, I didn't have a scale but it would have weighed in at 5.50lbs. I wish I had of gotten a picture of it's belly to show girth!
Nice fish! Especially for up here in Canada!
Nice fish. What were the measurements?

I was just getting into fishing and didn't do any weighing or measurements. I'm going to have to catch him this year to get them!
Nice fish.
<-----there's mine. 5lbs. 1oz.
I was by myself on the boat so i couldn't get a better picture, but this guy weighed in at 5.7lbs. It was eating well & had a nice fat belly. Caught on a Twin Cities metro lake.
Most of those I talk about that I neither weighed nor measured are all over 6#
This one went 6.3, I believe....at least that's what my scale said

AGREED.... once i get the scales and ruler they're all like 2-3 pounds and less than 20 inches....
Beauty fish jsinkic! I too am from Canada, just West Coast
I happened to get a pic of my PB as well. No scale but it went 21" long and was quite chunky (wish I was smart enough to get a girth measurement). Seemed like a solid 5lbs.
awesome pics guys!!! i must give the nod to BooyahMan for one of the coolest pics i've seen on here. his pic demonstrates that he is clearly proficient in 2 categories - bass fisherman and contortionist. just messin' with ya man.

Haha! Thank you, thank you. I think I need to hire a photographer for those rare moments I need a photo. Getting pics by propping my camera on my small backpack makes for some sore legs afterwards.

I wish. Unfortunately I think there's some unintentional photo magic going on in that photo. I'm also a pretty small guy. I believe it was a solid 5, not over 6 honestly.
Take pics with my fish then lol
Mine was 10lbs 2ozs at Lake Commendero, MX
My biggest in the US was 7lbs 14ozs at a lake in Kansas.

Always incredibly refreshing to see the OPPOSITE of what most fisherman do... Guess unrealistically high!
That's a great fish and every bit of 5lbs pushing 6! Rare to see a modest estimate airing on the low side. Congrats on that fish!
Measured right at 24" but I didn't have a scale. It's by far the biggest bass I have ever caught.
This was my biggest smallie just over 4lbs at 4lb 2oz

Great Bass and I really like that hat - (just not this season).

Crazy the U.S. bass is clearly more healthy and even LOOKS bigger ... You'd thjnk eating tilapia he'd be a fatty ... Oh well still better than iver ever gotten on a lure
My biggest largemouth 11-2oz & smallmouth 7-6oz.
Spot fell a hair shy of 7lbs, and Largemouth went 13-3. Still searching for a 6+ Smallie
LM 10lb 14oz - Sm 5lb 0 oz

David I'll trade you a 6-8 smallie & a 6-11 smallie for your 13-3 largemouth.

Haha, if it were 8lbs I'd take that trade in a heart beat! I have a 12-6 LM that I would be alright calling my PB for an 8lb smallie swap!
14 lbs. 2 oz.
23" smallie, lean fish, didn't even break the 5lb mark.
PB largemouth is the one in my profile photo (24", no weight), but this photo was one of three times I have captured her in 2 years. Nice to have a PB living within walking distance of your house.
Dont know what mine is on a largemouth , there are so many so close. I think this is my biggest smallmouth . Caught on a popper .

That has to be one of my favorite pictures Paul. The smile on your face leaves no doubt that is a PB of a lifetime.
The personal best thread seems to pop up about every month or so. I am always willing to post some big fish pictures.
The fish in my profile pic went 8 lbs 9 oz. At the time was personal best until 3 weeks later I got a 8-10 my personal best at the time.
Here is my current personal best 9 lbs 1 oz
Although none of the fish are over the sacred 10 lb mark, fish of this size are pretty big for Maine. State record is 11-10.
I don't really fish for smallmouth but my personal biggest smallmouth is 4 lbs 8 oz.
My personal best went an even 8 lbs and measured an even 24". Apparently she liked to work with round numbers.
She was set up about 15 yards away from a school of smaller (1 lb or so bass). I caught 6 of them in 7 casts and then after no strikes for about 3 minutes, cast to the side to see if they moved. I don't know if she was sitting there waiting for easy leftovers or was targeting those smaller bass themselves.

this is why pics are misleading and the scales do not lie!!! i'm not disputing you one bit clayton, just saying that the one you caught in mexico looks so skinny to me i wouldn't have placed it over 10 lbs. and if you held those 2 pics up asking which weighed more i would have said the Kansas bass. but that's just me and my observation, others will surely see it different. the girth on the kansas fish just leads my brain to think it would have weighed more than the Mexico fish! either way, SWEEEEEEEEEET fish!!
I may have caught a couple just a tad bigger in FL, but this Potomac River brute and his little buddy were caught nearly back to back. It was late August and it was crazy skinny, but still went almost 8lbs on a light weighing scale. I can't image what it would have weighed earlier in the year... TAGGED FISH TOO! My most memorable day on the Potomac!

Both deceptive pictures. The Mexican bass was extremely long, 27" but only 14 or 15 inches around If I remember correctly. She could have easily been in the 13-15 pound range but was probably in her twilight of life. The Kansas bass was a tank, tall, thick, but not overly long. One of the healthiest and strongest largemouth I've ever caught for sure.
