fishing user avatarMainebass1984 reply : 

How deep have you aight bass ? What is the deepest and on what.

The deepest I have caught bass was 44 ft on a blade bait on the day after thanksgiving.


fishing user avatarTWMstr reply : 

12-14'  4lber on a carolina rig trick worm. felt like a friggin 8lber. haha


fishing user avatarTeal reply : 

40+ football jig fishing a main channel. We've caught several between 2-4lbs on that area where the channel swings in on Gaston. Ive also used carolina rigs, heavy spoons, and drop shots in that 30-40' area and been productive.


fishing user avatarSPEEDBEAD. reply : 

If you mean how deep was the bait when I caught the fish? Probably about 25ft or so fishing a shakey head on a Kentucky Lake point.

 

If you mean the deepest the water was, then around 36 FOW on topwater. ;)


fishing user avatarjimmykm21 reply : 

Close to 40 feet but I wasn't fishing for bass.

Using a bottom bouncer with live night crawler.


fishing user avatarDelfiBoyz_One_and_Only reply : 

38 Feet with a Jig, I popped it up pretty hard when I felt it hit the bottom.  Worked very well.  I have also caught some pretty deep on a spoon in 40+ fow but, I was pumping it back to the boat so I am not sure how deep my bait was when I was catching fish.

Most of the ponds/lakes I fish are generally shallow since I'm a bank fisherman. I would probably say deepest I caught a fish was maybe between 10 and 14 feet maybe


fishing user avatarFelix77 reply : 

33 feet with a magnum Shakey head worm and Gama alien head.


fishing user avatargobig reply : 

I have caught spots in 80' of water and largies around 50'.

intresting topic...

 

do you have to take extra caution when pulling bass out of those depths? i mean, can something happen to them, similar to what happens to divers?? in fact i think thats why you have to fizz them, right?? so whats the proper way of pulling them, very slowly??

In my experience you need to take your time bringing them up. Ive seen eyes pop out and stomachs bulge out in their mouths. If you are putting them in the livewell they will need to be fizzed. If they go right back in they seem to go right back down and stay there.


fishing user avatarSiebert Outdoors reply : 

Id say approximately 30 ft


fishing user avatarCrestliner2008 reply : 

35'. Thats the limit to which I will drag any fish up out of freshwater. I'm strictly a CPR fisherman. No need to put fish in jeopardy by chasing them deeper. Just too risky. Besides, I do alright within these depths.


fishing user avatarrangerboy reply : 

just caught a 5lber in 35ft of water draggin a lv500. over a rock pile. felt like a mac truck when she hit.


fishing user avatarWRB reply : 

About 85' Crow lake in Canada fishing for lake trout, caught a smallmouth bass.

Lake trout can easily come out of 150' of water without any air bladder affects, they have values to release the pressure change....bass don't.

It's common out west during the winter period to meter bass at 90' and a lot of anglers catch bass at that depth. My depth limit for bass is 40' due to pressure change creates severe stress to bass.

fishing user avatarMichBassMan reply : 

Smallmouth 60feet deep on a jigging rappala.

Caught a big spot in 31 feet of water on a shakeyhead.


fishing user avatarAndyTN reply : 

Approx. 35 Feet on a 10.5 worm.


fishing user avatarwisconsin heat reply : 

18 Fow on a rockpile with a T-rigged 7 inch ribbontail.


fishing user avatarBobP reply : 

Largemouth, 65 ft, jigging spoon.  I regularly catch bass in 55 ft of water on jigging spoons on a deep reservoir I frequent.  In the fall and winter when the bass are after threadfin shad in deep water, you either catch them there or go fishless.


fishing user avatarSnakehead Whisperer reply : 

Caught a LMB in 67 FOW on  a dropshot yesterday fishing for walleye/crappie. That is the deepest I've caught one so far.


fishing user avatarTodd2 reply : 

About 20, but that's rare. Usually my "deep fish" are caught in 10-15.
