We have a winner! PM address and I'll get pics of weighing up.

It was 21.5 with pinched tail, not enough hands to show in picture.






I actually weighed it 3 times as I thought it was too high. First weight was 6 lbs 15 ounces. I don't care about spot on accuracy thus the cheap scale. But how many of you would like a scale that keeps going higher every time you weigh? I'm calling it 7 even.

Nice fish.

I say 7 even.

7.3

It's already been decided boys. I will add that I caught several more in the 3.5 range along with some smaller bass all on spinnerbait, all next to wood, and at different times of the day fishing Murvaul Friday and Saturday. The key for me after the worst year of catching in my memory, was to think back to my better days in previous years and try to visualize what I was doing then to be successful when the bite was tough. I slowed way way down. I'm talking 2 seconds per revolution of the reel handle on low geared reel and visualizing when the bite would occur. When I got bit right away, I knew that had been my problem for most of the year... not fishing slow enough. Caught the one above on the first cast to wood after the first spinnerbait catch. Try doing that the next time you are having a bad day and see if things don't pick up.

I was closest to the first weight with my 6-12 haha. Great fish. Gotta love war eagle spinnerbaits.
