FR0G Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 I sure didn't. I finally got the pic of my biggest bass to be caught dropshotting. I didn't have a scale then, so no weight. I caught all my big bass when I didn't own a scale, go figure. What do you guys think she weighed? Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted August 30, 2008 Super User Posted August 30, 2008 6-7 LBS. Nice bass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
rondef Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Thats a nice hawg you got there. I am going to say 8lbs. Quote
paul. Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 beautiful fish-thick, fat, and healthy. way to go man. i bet that was a great fight on a drop shot rig. Quote
CookieMonst3r Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Looks to be a good 7 pounds or so. Nice hog. Quote
Big-O Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Weight is not the important thing with a fish like yours Frog....it is the 3 majic F's "the Fish, the Fight and the Feeling" Big O Quote
Eddie Munster Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Nice fish man. Congrats. Go buy a scale from Walmart; it comes with a tape measure too. Quote
FR0G Posted August 31, 2008 Author Posted August 31, 2008 I own a scale now. That fish though was maybe the hardest fighting bass I've caught. I had a nice battle with it for what seemed like forever. Thought I hooked onto a big catfish, so I was bummed out, and then I saw her come up and headshake, and the fight was back on. To top that, I was using 12lb Berkley Vanish! The weakest line ever, haha. Quote
JShrock07 Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Nice looking bass no matter what it weighs!!! Glad to hear you are still catching them!!! Congrats! Quote
Super User Sam Posted August 31, 2008 Super User Posted August 31, 2008 Let's say she is 23 inches long with a total 19-inch girth. OK, let's use the formula. Length X Length X Girth = Pounds 1200 So this gives us 23 X 23 X 18 = 7.94 pounds 1200 I will give you 8 pounds. Please double-check this formula as you know your dimensions which can be estimated to the fish and let us know what your formula promulgates. Great catch! Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted August 31, 2008 Super User Posted August 31, 2008 15lbs! no, its clearly 14lbs 6oz. Quote

Bassaholic84 Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Nice Fish!!! What you use as your plastic on you rig. Ive been having good luck drop shotting deep in the hot summer although its my least favorite technique it works Quote
FR0G Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Can't say the color, its my little secret, but I use the 6 inch straight tail roboworms. Quote
