Had a tourist ask me this at Fork today and I have seen some 6lbers that were overs. I want to say a 5.78 won an hour at one of the big bass deals. Can't really recall anyone talking about any DD unders. I have caught some 9s that were slots.

Usually when we're talking about unders and overs, we're talking about under and over the slot. I don't know exact weights, but I've heard of some 3 pound unders (16 inches or less) and the 5 pound over you mentioned. I've never caught a DD in the slot (under the 24" mark, but I've been told about several. I caught a 9.23 that was 22.5" this past winter. I think she has a chance of making DD before she gets out of the slot.

There was a guy in 2013 McDonald's that posted a pic of a 12+ that was under 24". Talk about a football & a heart breaker.
PB: 10.78 lbs at Lake Fork

I watched a guy try to weigh in a 10+ lber at the mega bass years ago. It was 23 7/8". Me and another guy had overs in the tanks. It was too late to put ours in so an under won a truck. That one still stings but the bass that was short was huge. There are DD bass that won't measure 24". Unfortunately, I've seen it first hand.

My buddy that lives in Emory has a replica of his 11 lb. 2 oz 23 1/2 inch slot. He wanted a skin mount but took a lot of pictures and let her go.

Seen a 3.50 weigh in at Skeeter owners a few years back,that was under 16" . That thing was a fat little fish I saw that fish too!! It looked deformed. Also if you look back through the SAL entries you will find a fish from Fork before the slot went to 16-24 that was 23" long and 23" girth.
