We've all heard the term dink and most of us have used it I'm sure but what exactly constitutes a dink?
Is a dink something smaller than a pound? Maybe it depends on the lake. A lake tha regularly gives up 4-5lb'ers might have 20oz dinks if most others go 3+lbs. Maybe a dink is something not much bigger than your bait.

What's YOUR definition?


I didn't lose him at the boat. I shook him off cause I didn't want my hands to get "fishy"

When you feel the thump on a 1/2 oz jig, set the hook and the fish fly’s out of the water and across the boat.

For Guadalupe bass all dinks are lunkers. It’s all good and there all fun anyway

Under the legal length is probably the best definition. I caught these three today. I’d say the last one is a dink.

In texas under 12 inch most other places 10 inch is certainly a dink.
