Hey Guys,

I've had a good past couple of weeks in the outdoors. I tagged out on turkey on opening day and now I caught my personal best bass.

I think I have landed one bigger before but I didn't have my scale and I know I hooked one even bigger than that but never landed it. Those two were a couple years ago.

This one inhaled a weightless purple worm about a second or two after it hit the water. It was on my first cast of the day too.

Instead of me saying the weight, let's hear some guesses first before I say it. Just interested to hear people's estimates from the picture.

You're on a roll! That bass looks similar to the one my dad caught earlier this spring....so I'm gonna guess 5lb 4oz.

You have me thinking my scale may not be working right... I got a reading of 3 pounds 3 ounces. I have an electronic Rapala scale.

Sometimes you just catch them with an empty stomach. Nice bas for sure though! It's not the number that matters or what you remember, it's what the fish meant to YOU.
