I was 8 years old when I caught my PB. It was 22 inches long and pre spawn on Dead Lake in MN. Didn't have a scale to weigh it. It was caught on a Berkley Power Lizard on jakerhead. The reel was a old Shimano Solstace and the rod was 7 foot medium Cabelas House brand rod with probably IM-2 graphite. The combo was about $40 tops and it was my first spinning rod ever that I was given as birthday gift. The picture is on a Polaroid if I can find it in a scrap book somewhere.

Wow I saw alot of adds about these on Facebook and just assumed they wasn't all that great cause I never saw anyone fish them, guess I was wrong. Just a cool looking lil swimbait

That is actually a really cool success story from a ltb, and I'm sure you would be still pleased if that was the only one you got, because you made it count.

March of '98. Shy of 7. 6-11 if I remember right. Hasn't been my biggest fish but she has been the heaviest.  

Glass Team daiwa - s spinnerbait rod, daiwa pro caster z reel, 14# Excalibur line and a 1/2 oz Excalibur spinnerbait. Silver and gold willow leaf blades with a white black and red skirt. 

To this day it's my spinnerbait rod and reel setup.  I'll be heartbroken when it finally gives up.

PB 7.5 lb March 2016 Lake Eufaula, AL

Rod: Gander Mountain 6' 6" Medium Heavy

Reel: Quantum MG 1310 Baitcaster

Line: McCoys Copolymer 17 lb

Lure: Zoom 8" Magnum Black Emerald Lizard

August 1987, 18 years old.

Quantum QMD 10 open face spinning reel.

6' light action Berkley lightning rod.

8lb Trilene.

White crappie jig.

Small bluegill hit the jig.  When I swung the bluegill out of the water, the water swirled.  I dropped the bluegill back in and the line slowly moved away.  After what seemed like an eternity, my 8lb personal best.  The hook was barely stuck in the corner of the mouth.

I still have the rod and reel setup.  My children use it (as well as me) and I always explain it's importance.

The bass was released.  I have a picture.

Talk about wrong gear for the bait huh?  But when out of the country and not properly prepared, you do what you have to do.  I have since changed all of my travel gear to better suit this situation, yet have not topped the bass.  Maybe I should try that horribly wrong setup again and let her catch me "off guard"
