kylek Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Caught this girl today at Harrison County Lake in Northern Missouri. She hit in a foot of water on a Zoom Super Speed craw in blue berry color. I assume she was on a bed as her tail was a bloody mess. This is by far my biggest bass to date. We couldn't get the scale to work when I caught her but it was a lot bigger than my father in law's 4.5 that we weighed earlier in the day. Anyone have a guess at what she may weigh? We were thinking at least 6 if not bigger. Quote
GoTakeANap Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 nice fish man. her tail is a bloody mess. if i had to guess inbetween 5 and 6 lbs. but ill wait to see what a expert says. Quote
kylek Posted May 27, 2012 Author Posted May 27, 2012 We caught 3 today that had bloody tails with this one being the worse. We caught a bunch last weekend at the same lake all with bloody tails. Water temp today was 74 degrees. All were caught in 2 ft. or less next to timber. Quote
North Ga Hillbilly Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Fannin those beds will bloody a tail up quick. Thats great lookin fish, I would guess its atleast 5.5, but you never know, could have been over 6. Pictures are bad at capturing true size NGahB Quote

flippin and pitchin Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Great job. I would put her around 6 pounds. Quote
Addicted to Smallies Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Great fish! Congratulations!!! She looks a little thin behind the shoulders, so I'd say 5.5 instead of 6... earlier/later in the season, she probably would have been well above 6! Quote
