I really don't have a weight for my biggest smallmouth. I recently found a creek near my home that's what the Missouri Department of Conservation has tagged a "Trophy smallmouth management area." MDC rules state a smallie has to be a minimum of 15" and the creel limit is 1. So smallmouth are everywhere. I caught one 2 years ago that was 18" long and fat. I'm guessing it was about 3 pounds. My brother in law caught a 19.5" smallie the same day. We guessed it around 4# or so. Both were caught on Rebel wee crawls, ultralight rods with 6# test. Heck of a fight!
