Big C Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 If you catch a 50lb striper on Lanier between Feb 1st through May 31st you get $10,000, a week-end cabin/guided trip on Lanier, a fully loaded Fishmaster T-top boat, and a set of installed under water lights for the boat. They have this contest every year, and it seems like they add more stuff every year. 1 Quote

Flippin4Biggins Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Hey my two PB were not in private or far ponds but public water... The biggest is my profile pic in Nebraska in west Omaha.... Flipping on a day where I was done as soon as I heard the first crackle of thunder and I was just poured rain on. Quote
aprestonSEK Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Kansas is 24" for largemouth. You have to send a picture as proof and they send you a paper certificate Quote

Flipping on a day where I was done as soon as I heard the first crackle of thunder and I was just poured rain on. Id say WC or W if it was in the last couple years, Z will be good in a couple years and same goes for PQ. How big did it go? Nice fish regardless... Quote
BASSPATROL247 Posted June 16, 2015 Author Posted June 16, 2015 If i was a guessing man id say a tad over or under 7lbs and id guess it wasvon a bed... Quote

Super User everythingthatswims Posted June 16, 2015 Super User Posted June 16, 2015 The VDGIF website has a page where you can see all of the citations registered for all public waters in VA which I think is crazy cool. You can search body of water, by species, and by year. I have caught 6 citation largemouth (22" plus) and one citation smallmouth (20") but haven't submitted any of them because it costs $5 to submit it for a certificate, so I'm sure tons of citations are caught that go unnoticed.

Nice fish regardless... It was just a tad over 7 so I say 7lbs and it wasn't west o now that I think of it it was at walnut creek off 370 in papillon and if you ever get a chance and are near it try it or shadow lake on a really crummy day with a jig. But if it's weedy and mossy... Don't waste your time unless you have a boat. But regardless both have monsters in them. Quote

But if it's weedy and mossy... Don't waste your time unless you have a boat. But regardless both have monsters in them.Did you see my post, first guess was WC or walnut creek. I fish there and shadow lake often. WC does get weedy around the banks in summer and so does prarie veiw but it didnt get as bad as WC until a couple years ago,hard from the bank but very fishable from a boat. PV gets hit hard and only being 38 acres those bass must think theyre at O'Hare from all the lures buzzin through the water, its my favorite lake to fish at night and thats where my PB came from.. if you dont have a boat you need to walk the trail to the west end where the bridge is and fish that creek from the mouth all the way west till the waters a couple inches deep, if your quiet amd dont use your headlight to shine on the water you can hammer back there with a craw its pretty deep about 8-10 feet until you get to the bridge where its about 6 and within 75 yards its a foot or so.. those nass stack up in there at night. Awesome spot because boats cant get back in the creek because of all the trees and laydowns in front of it...where can you get a boat in at shadow?? I never seen a ramp there. Your talking about shadow lake thats actually two lakes but theyre connected right? Not too far from walnut creek but north of 370?Heres one from PV at night, flip phone pic so its not a good pic... my Pb from the timber in front of the creek mouth... Quote

Nebraska has the same thing showing MA's and u can also search lakes and years.. pretty cool... 1 Quote
