Beat my personal best, twice in one day.

[GRiver]

I can’t believe it, I didn’t have my scales with me so I don’t know the weight. But I know they are bigger than any one I caught before. And sorry for the bad pictures, I was trying to hold the fish as close to me as I could and my other hand as far away as possible. I should have taken the time and set the timer. I was pretty stoked. 
I caught the first one which beat my PB, I took pictures and fixed my bait, fished about 50 ft and caught the second one right away on the same worm. It was a Basspro ribbon tail, 7.5 inch in June bug color with Garlic scent. Texas rigged.

No I didn’t take any measurements. I just grabbed two rods, terminal tackle box and a few bags of worms. Going to grab a few hrs before dark. No scales, tape or even hard baits.

Next time you forget your scale or tape measure just cut some fishing line to measure the length and another to measure the girth. When you get home you can measure the line that you cut and then drop that data in this form to estimate the weight:

That’s a great idea, I just thought of getting a picture close to my head for size reference. But try to hold it close and reach out and get a pic, and wanting to get the fish back in the water fast. Didn’t work out to good …. Crap pictures. 
my old PB was 5lb 1oz. 
Any guesses on what these would be?

Congrats on the PB’s. If you really want to know better start carrying a scale.
