Largemouth a 2" yellow grub bought prerigged so I could fish a pond that was in the area we were vacationing at in Florida around 30 years ago. Still remember I cast out what I thought was a good cast and thought I was snagged on something. Yanked back hard to free it and the water erupted. I know it was big, not a giant, but being a punk kid I didn't know to measure it.

Smallie was with a Ned rig. Finally got a 20 on the river. While a lot of guys probably catch 20s all the time my river system produces a lot of 18 to 19" fish, not many Giants. I know with 95% certainty that this fish is over 8 years old which also gives me an idea that giant river smallies will be few and far between for me on this system.

PB was...believe it or not...on a t-rigged 4" Lucky Strike curly-tail worm (walmart special) in motor oil/red when I was 12 or 13. Don't remember the exact weight but it is hanging on the wall above my desk. Since then I've had a few fish that were close on a c-rig and one on a good old Creme Lit'le Fishie that used to be so popular for striper fishing...

I might have caught a new personal best on the Zoom Ultra Vibe Speed craw Tuesday evening. I didn't have a scale or even a phone to take pics. But it fought harder and looked bigger than any bass I've ever caught. So my 3 biggest fish have come on...drum roll please...

Update: An old BPS white Uncle Bucks brand tandem willow blade white spinnerbait. But I lost a sure PB on a T rigged Yamamoto Hula Grub.

Berkley powerbait 10 inch power worm black with a blue tail T-Rigged. 

 

I am pretty sure I lost what would have been my new PB on a dirty jigs 3/4 oz swim jig with a RI skinny dipper in white trash. Reel locked up and I couldn't even turn the handle. The fish was ripping line and then pop, he's gone.

7 lb even super skinny spawned out female, post spawn. Caught her on a black/blue Booyah Baby Boo jig with matching Yum Crawbug trailer. What can I say. I really like Pradco stuff. Maybe not as much as I did back then though. Caught her on a gravel flat on a creek arm about a 1/2 mile from the main river.

 

Back then I didn't do a lot of skirted jig fishing, but when I did it was usually finesse jigs. I very rarely throw black/blue plastics. I guess I should since that was the color I caught that big girl on.

 

Oops, just read whole thread. Guess it's not just LMB.

 

PB 15.5" Guadalupe Bass was on a Rapala Original Floating Minnow size 5; color bleeding copper flash. Was actually fishing for Redbreast with my long glass UL rod on the Upper Guadalupe and caught quite a few of them when this came out of a place were the river bottle necks and current is faster.

 

PB 3.1 Spot came from an EasTex river on a pearl shad color Bomber Model B squarebill. That's a big spot for out that way. They have some Coosa strain spots in some reservoirs in the North, NW and East, but this one was a Kentucky Spot.

My PB Largemouth @ 4lb13oz was caught off a dock on an ultralight with a #12 hook and a single orange Power Egg, what a battle! Still trying to catch a bigger one on standard tackle.

 

Smallmouth @ 3lb6oz was on a  weightless t-rig 4" blue/black Senko.
