I know there is already a catch pic thread and probably numerous other ways to brag about the best bass you have caught, but I thought it would be cool to have it all in one place. Feel free to post about how you caught it, or just post a picture.
I caught my personal best, 4 lbs 9 oz Spot, using a tri-colored grub on a 1/4 oz ball head. I threw it down a rock wall and bam, PB.
7lb 2oz. Southern Indiana.
Solid 5 lber here in central FL! ????
And a measly 11 lber too. Flippin a punch rig into grass mats.
No weights but 3 largemouth around 8 lb and a smallmouth probably close to 6. Top fish picture is from a mountain lake in East Tennessee 2 days after Christmas on a gold silver buddy. Middle fish was in east Texas on a Texas rig. Bottom fish was not very far from my house. Last two pictures are both in my late grandfathers 1957 Cherokee aluminum boat
PB smallie at 7lb-6oz & PB largemouth at 11lb-2oz.
Caught on a crappie minnow at Kentucky Lake during flood stage. Taxidermist weighed it just under 7lbs

Those are some nice fish A-Jay. And that Smallie is one beautiful specimen.

That had to make the rest of your work day a breeze man, nice fatty
Our personal best bag of 3. Around 17lbs.
My second biggest at 6Lb 10oz. Doesn't look it though. All fish posted had been caught, tagged, documented and released multiple times. We estimate my pb at 13 years oId this year. It was caught one time in 2011 and then I caught it in 2017.
A solid 4lber caught, in a small pond near the house I used to live in Pineville, La, on a red bug Ol' Monster.
3-8 Brown Bass (family effort all 3 of us had a hand in catching this one)
5-4 LMB (I don't have a pic on this phone)
I only count NY bass. I have a few over 8 from Florida, back in the 90s.
No pic of my PB LMB, 7-2. Here's a 7-1, though:
PB SMB, 5-12:
@A-Jay that smallie is insane man!
International: 9-13
Domestic: 6-3
Didn't get a pic of my actual pb (5.5#), which was a couple years ago, but this one I think is my second biggest, from September (5.25#, 21"):
I was by myself when I caught my PB, so the pictures I got of it really doesn't do it justice. I caught this one 2 weeks later on the same lake, it weighed in at an even 8lbs (4 oz less than the PB) but I had someone with me to get a better picture.
Unfortunately I don't have a pic of my PB, but have some recent 4 to 6 lb.pics.
All released.

The head on that thing is unreal! Amazing pic
7 lb 6 oz. caught on a NetBait B-Bug.
Got my new PB on Monday in Virginia. It was the 3rd straight warming trend day, got up to 66 degrees. I got her on an underspin jig head with a 3.8" swim bait, boot tail. She was 24" on the dot, and weighed 9.3 pounds!!!! I still have goosebumps.
Congrats! That's a fatty! I got a 24" bass once that I think was about 8lbs, had a bloody tail and I guessed had already spawned out. It was extremely beat up
