Incredible Bass Fishing Trip {PICS}

[buckhunter14]

Just got back from my first annual (more to come) Small Mouth Bass Fishing trip. Spend 5 days in heaven catching the largest Smallies I have ever seen. Unbelievable the amount of fish, and the shear SIZE of these monsters.

I caught the largest Small Mouth of my life, and the largest one I have ever seen caught. Stats were 21.75" and 6.75 lbs. Caught overfifteen (15)bass this week over 18.5". Included just a few pictures of some 20+ inchers. What a week.

The setup.

Fishing Depth: 5-25 feet.
Tackle: Crawler Harness with Stinger, Cranks, Tubes.
Line: Berkley 4 lb. test.
Rod: Medium action Mitchell Pesca, Medium action Quantum Pro Qualifier.

Fished huge Smallies on beds or fished staging fish in deeper water.





5 - Gorgeous 20+, awesome fish.


4 - FIRST cast of the week. What a way to start, most agressive fish ever!


3 - 3rd largest fish of the trip. 20 and 7/8". Tube jigging.


2 - BIGGEST fish of the trip. 21.75" fish. 6.75 lbs. Absolutely massive Smallmouth bass. Crush a crawler rolling over its bed.


The empty bed of the fish caught above. This bed is over 6 foot in diameter. The wooden pole is a power line pole that you see pictured for reference. 17 foot of water.


1 - Second largest fish. 21" even. 6.125 lbs.and Gorgeous.

Those are some awesome fish, congrats. Which lake were you on. That is something i would make a yearly trip,

[buckhunter14]

Thanks mbhutton. The lake has to remain unknown, it is quiet a hidden secret and frankly I would like to keep it that way. Not that I'm worried about you, but other onlookers of the site.

Great experiences, already looking forward to next year.

Thanks guys. Pound for pound the fish are AWESOME. Just scrappers. Nothing like Largemouth in my opinion, i'd take these guys anyday.
