[QUOTE="Still_Learnin', post: 53541, member: 1704"] I agree 1000% with this statement. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] There was a tournament on Ft. Peck a couple of weeks ago that took 47 pounds over 2 days to win. The limit each day was 5 fish and this was all smallies. The average sized fish that was weighed in during the tournament was over 4 pounds! The biggest for the even was somewhere around 6.75 pounds! Just unreal. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Most of us bass guys in this state consider anything over 5 pounds a big smallmouth. 4 pounders are pretty common on most of our waters but the 5 pounders are pretty rare. I was convinced that I would keep the first 5 pounder that I caught. Then I caught two in one day and released both. Now I guess I'll mount the first 6 pounder I catch... By the way, the biggest one that I caught was 5lbs 15 oz and was right at 20 inches. This was in the spring when she was full of eggs. [/QUOTE]
