If so my son and I have been on lake Millie Lacs the last 2 days ,total fish caught 51 smallmouth 27 walleye.
9 smallmouth over 5 pounds one 6 pound fish 31 over 4 pounds
Here is a 6 and a 5,8oz
Sounds like an awesome trip. To answer your question, I don't think a 5 pound smallie is a trophy. I would mount a replica of a seven tho.

Nice. Trophy is in the eye of the beholder. I've caught 1 4.10 and 1 4 .7 in Central Texas. If I ever weigh one over 5 I'm getting a replica just like a LMB over 10.

I would say 6 makes a trophy. That sounds like a great trip.
