AC870 Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 I don’t know what it weighed. I didn’t have a scale. It was quite a bit bigger than the 6 lb I caught last year. It had not been a good day. Nothing much had worked for me. I found some bait and was just content catching stripers, a few crappie etc. I had to be somewhere and I was just trying to catch one more fish before I left when the big one hit. I’m guessing it was between 7 and 8 lbs. I was fishing with a 20-year old 6-foot Berkley Tournament spinning rod and 8 lb test. Never thought a new best would come that way. I’d been stuck on 6 lbs and caught one that size each of last 3 years. 21 Quote

Hook2Jaw Posted December 18, 2019 Posted December 18, 2019 I held a fish in 50 degree water this past Saturday for 20 minutes until the fiancee arrived with a scale. Probably not the best way to treat a fish, but probably not worse than a livewell. Congratulations on a new personal best! That is a pretty fish! Quote
