Mccallister25 Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 My mind was wandering at work today, and i started thinking about catching fish on spinning gear. So out of curiosity, whats the biggest bass everyones caught on a spinning outfit? Pics are welcome also. This could be a cool thread! Quote
Super User MCS Posted July 18, 2013 Super User Posted July 18, 2013 22" and didn't get a weigh so your guess is as good as mine. Got it on a t-rigged weightless 4" blue pearl/blk & holo flake senko on a 6'-6" BPS carbonlite MH/F and President XT with10 # sufix siege right after it missed a pop-r Quote
Super User Darren. Posted July 18, 2013 Super User Posted July 18, 2013 My mind was wandering at work today, and i started thinking about catching fish on spinning gear. So out of curiosity, whats the biggest bass everyones caught on a spinning outfit? Pics are welcome also. This could be a cool thread! For me, several between 6 and 7 pounds. PB caught on a baitcaster. Pic in my avatar was one of the 6 pounders. Gear for that fish was a 5'9" Shimano Compre + Shimano Stradic 1000FI, 10 lb PowerPro with an 8lb leader. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted July 18, 2013 Super User Posted July 18, 2013 Well...Just over 7 and my PB, just over 8 <------------ Quote
Mark Williams Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 My biggest bass ever caught on spinning gear was 24". It was in a small pond in the middle of nowhere in Northeast Pennsylvania.. I caught it near a stick-up after seeing a swirl in the water, on a 4" junebug Yum dinger, using 8 lb test Yo Zuri Hybrid line, an Okuma 7' Reflexions rod, and a cheap Daiwa 8 ball bearing spinning reel.

Super User flyfisher Posted July 18, 2013 Super User Posted July 18, 2013 26" largemouth pre spawn...no idea on weight but guessing it was close to if not passing double digits in weight. Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted July 18, 2013 Super User Posted July 18, 2013 7.5lb largemouth 6lb-14oz smallmouth Quote
NEjitterbugger Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Biggest bass on spinning gear, 5lbs 11 oz... my PB Quote
Super User AK-Jax86 Posted July 18, 2013 Super User Posted July 18, 2013 6lbs 10oz on a 6'9" St Croix Mojo Bass rod I forget what I was using to catch it probably a spinner bait, jig, or crank Quote
gallowaypt Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 26-27 in. bass caught during the spawn. Didn't get her weight but she would've been an easy DD if she hadn't dropped her eggs already. Quote
Super User Teal Posted July 19, 2013 Super User Posted July 19, 2013 6.5 lbs +/- Largemouth. 10-11lbs Striper Quote
buzzbait4me Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Not sure on the exact weight but it was over six pounds while fishing a split shot rig with a zoom baby brush hog on 8lb flouro. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted July 19, 2013 Super User Posted July 19, 2013 The only one I can think of without looking at my logs went 4-01, and it was on a baby brush hog on a split shot rig. Quote

Capt.Bob Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 well not a bass but in a strong current and more fight than bass if you are questioning the ability af landing fish with spinning gear, 18 lbs. of Golden Coho!! Quote
DelfiBoyz_One_and_Only Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 well not a bass but in a strong current and more fight than bass if you are questioning the ability af landing fish with spinning gear, 18 lbs. of Golden Coho!! Nice carp. I snagged one on a ultralite Shakespeare rod with 6 lbs test. It was like 10 lbs and snagged near the tail. Took me over 20 minutes to land it. Good times. Jay Quote
wnybassman Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 As far as bass on spinning gear, a few upper 5 pound largemouth and a few lower 6 pound smallies. As far as other species, this on a 7' ultralight with 4 pound flouro. 45 minutes and had the trolling motor on high chasing it trying not to get spooled. Quote
NC_Bass6 Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 my pb, close to 7 pounds, my top 3 biggest fish have all been caught on spinning gear Quote
georgeyew Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 As far as other species, this on a 7' ultralight with 4 pound flouro. 45 minutes and had the trolling motor on high chasing it trying not to get spooled. Holy cow! That was an incredible catch on 4 lb line. Were you praying that the line didn't snap? Quote
