pondmaster32 Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 where did you catch your biggest fish and what did you use? i have 2, one was a 8 pound bass and my second was a 54 inch musky!!! Quote
Branuss04 Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 A 11# catfish while bass fishing. She was everybit of 30+ inches. What sucks is I thought it was a GIANT bass because it was fighting so hard and got really excited till my dad netted it.... then I was like WT.H. Caught bigger saltwater fish though Quote

SDoolittle Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 I caught an 89 lb spoonbill (paddlefish) in Oklahoma about 15 years ago. Not sure about the length, but it was over 60" for sure! Quote

Steven Ladner Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Only 20-30 inches. It would be different if redfish counted Quote

Eddie Munster Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 30-40 inches Caught a big old mud cat out of the Monongahelia River in Pittsburgh, PA that went about 10+ lbs. Caught it on a Mepps Bucktailed Spinner near a sewer outlet and some guy asked me if I was going to eat it. I said heck no and he asked for it. I gave it to him. We need a barf smiley for such things. Quote
seyone Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 43" striper caught in the delaware river. We were using live herring. Quote
basser89 Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Mine is a 45' 25lb musky caught on the Potomac, on top water. Now that was fun! ;D Quote
Iowa Matt Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Caught a grass carp over 50lb last year on a Mulberry! Saw them feeding on the berries that were falling into the water from the tree so I gathered some up and skewered one on a Mosquito hook on my UL with 4lb fireline and cast it under the tree. Had a hit immediatly and had to follow the fish with the trolling motor for a while before landing it. Bottomed out my 50lb scale easily. Shallow sandy lake with no structure for him to get into was the only reason I landed him on such light line. Matt Quote
Fishwhittler Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Caught 23" and 21" channel cats on a 4" soft shad and a crankbait, respectively. Quote

DINK WHISPERER Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 A monster blue catfish in NC while slow rolling a spinnerbait in 25ft of water! Well over 30lbs on my scale! Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted May 29, 2009 Super User Posted May 29, 2009 Why do you start a poll by polling only for the length of the fish caught and then immediately asking WHERE it was caught? : Make up your mind. Quote
