RANGER#1 Pro Angler Registered: 11/27/10 Posts: 877 Loc: Overton, TX	i know its not a bass, but i was bass fishing and hooked this fish. biggest fish ive ever caught. our scales stopped at 50#. we think he was pushing 100#. im 5'7" and this was as high as i could lift him. it took me and my partner both to lift him or her (not sure) out of the water. all we had was a regular bass net and could only get 1/3 of it in it.. not gonna switch to rough fishng anytime soon but this was definatley the catch of a life time. reevo reel, kistler rod, 12# vicious flouro, xr 50 one knocker.. _________________________

bfs0078 Extreme Angler Registered: 10/26/09 Posts: 1183 Loc: georgetown Tx	That is a big Smallmouth Buffalo. Being that I do fish for them on purpose, it would be likely around mid 70's. Their girth and width can fool ya sometimes. Thanks for being respectful and releasing a trophy fish.
