Sellersrobe Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 Hello! I just got back from a youth tournament at Candlewood Lake in CT. I caught a smallie just shy of 5 lbs. I know for many of you that isn't a giant, but I've put so much work into my tournaments with poor results, so I'm pretty proud of it. Pictures will come shortly. 12 2 Quote

It's hard to scale, but I promise it was a big girl 18 Quote

Super User NHBull Posted August 23, 2018 Super User Posted August 23, 2018 That's a great fish, especially in an area that isn't known for big ones Quote

It ain’t Lake Erie, but it ain’t bad. Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection considers a Trophy smallmouth bass to be four pounds (if weighed) or 21 inches in length (if catch and release only). That’s a really nice fish! 2 Quote
