My crappie was a 3 pound 4 oz white that I caught on a minnow while fishing buck brush on Barkley in about 1988. I caught another one that day that was just over 3 pounds. I filleted both (that was before I became a taxidermist).
My largest bass was 9 pounds 4 oz that I caught on a buzz-bait during a bass tournament on Lake West Point in Ga in 1980. It is on the wall of my studio after I replaced the fins and repainted it. I caught one weighing 8 pounds and 14 oz in a tournament 2 weeks earlier on Lake Eufaula.
