I packed light and wasn't expecting to get any big ones and didn't bring my scale. But I hooked this sucker on my 2nd cast into a small pond. It's easily the biggest bass I've ever caught. Judging by my photo next to my arm he's about 16-17" long. The lure is a 2.5" pompadour jr. Im thinking he could be 5lbs. Hard to tell from a picture, but I would say that bass is somewhere in the high 2's maybe low 3's. Please get yourself a digital scale and a tape measure so you can get a more accurate weight. It's a nice bass and it beats not catching anything. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 17, 2017 Global Moderator Posted June 17, 2017 I'd guess low 3's, which is pretty heavy for a 16-17 inch fish. A 5 pound bass will generally be in the 20-21 inch range. To give some perspective, this fish was between 18 and 19 inches, super fat, but didn't quite go 5 pounds. 1 Quote
