RE: Pond fishermen-biggest bass..what lure?
last year I caught a 9lb 4oz bass by deadsticking a texas rigged berkley powerbait a black with a blue tail I was using 20lb fireline. I caught it my first trip out last year. Talk about hard to top. I also caught a few 5 pounders last year at different places. I caught them later in the summer on a powerbait tournament strength electric green six inch work with eight pound line. I was floating it on top slowly with no weight. I hope I can have half as good a year this year on ponds as I did last year.
