Just checking to see what others on the TFF had done in the past. You hear stories of huge bags coming off lakes like Rayburn, Toledo, Amistad and Falcon back in the day but it seams that 25# is a big bag most of the time.
Since I've been tournament fishing again (the past 1-1/2 year)I have only managed around 15# or so until yesterday.
My wife and I have been fishing the Lake Winnsboro working mans tournament on Thursdays from 6-10 and wacked em last night.
We only caught 6 fish but ended up with 21.08# to win and had a 5.85# for the big bass pot.
While I'm still looking for the 30+# bag, I have to say that I'm proud of our accomplishment last night and even more proud that my wife got to participate.

I fished a Wednesday night tourney on Gilmer Lake (few years ago)...We weighed in almost 25#'s....The following week, 2 guys weighed in almost 30#'s.

I've had 2 bags around 24-25, can't remember the exact weight. Falcon in 2009 and Hubbard Creek the next year

We didn't win either time, lol!

Been a few ounces under 25lbs a few times. Strangely my best tournament stringer came in an Media individual tournament and was 24.97lbs. The lake it came from is what stunned me more than the weight itself.

To me though on most DFW lakes I consider anything 20lbs and up to be a strong weight. Back in the heyday out west and today around East Texas I think 25lbs and up is the mark.

22 lbs, 4 oz's in a 5 fish tourney. Best 5 in a big bass tourney, 46 lbs, 10 oz's, awesome day. I'll take the latter in a big bass tourney any day! We took 5 spots in the hourly weigh-in's and 1 and 2 overall.

23lbs and 20 plus bag. This is why I am not an elite Pro. Should have dozens of 20 plus bags.
