What lure caught your biggest bass of 2016?

[scaleface]

Strike King Silent Red Eye Shad for me . Caught the fish about 20 foot deep on a point ,  hopping the lure like a worm . I dont know the weight . It had the length of an 8 lber and the girth of a 5 .

Whopper plopper 90 size. Caught one a little bigger but it says the file is too big to upload and did not have a scale on me to verify. It was the same whopper plopper though.

[ww2farmer]

I caught several 6+ lbers this year. 

 

A couple on a SK KVD 200 size suspending jerkbait, and a couple more on a swim jig.

 

What was odd about the 2016 season for me...........is I usually catch my biggest fish in mid-to latr April, early to mid August, and late Sept.- mid October.

 

This year it was early May, and mid July.

Reins bubbling shaker 4" green pumpkin fished on a dropshot is what got me all my biggest fish this year. Biggest went 6lb and I lost a couple more good ones. 

[WI_Angler1989]

Sadly, I don't know the weight of her. The length was 22.5 inches and FAT! Obviously take it with a grain of salt seeing as there's no scales to back it up. 

 

Caught on a Cabin Creek Salty Critter Jr tube (2.5") in watermelon blue flake.
