    Default What is the biggest crappie you have ever caught?


    What is the biggest crappie you have ever caught, here in Kentucky?

    What about your biggest bass?


    My best fish:

    Bass- 8 pounds 9 ounces -from kentucky lake

    Crappie- 2 pounds 6 ounces - from kentucky lake
    I live 10 miles from the 160,000 acre Kentucky Lake, and the 57,000 acre Barkley Lake is within 25 miles of my house. I live 10 miles from 220,000 acres of Water.

    I live in an Outdoor Paradise

    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.

    Talking Biggest "caught" ...

    (if the definition of "caught" means landed ... IN THE BOAT)

    Crappie - dozens of them just shy of 3lbs - Barkley Lake 1971-1975 - minnows

    LM Bass - 7lbs Herrington Lake June 1991 ... Fire Tiger 6A Bomber


    (I have "hooked" bigger, of both species ... I just didn't "land 'em" :o )

    ... cp

    Chanuc - That is a great pic! How long did it take to get that smile off your face?
    Give a man a fish and feed him for a day.
    Teach a man to fish and he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day!

    Crappie 4lb 13 oz IL farm pond 1973
    Bass 8 lb 15 oz farm pond (different) IL.

    The crappie is one of only about a dz that I have ever caught there. Caught it on a zebco 202 reel. Wasn't supposed to keep any fish (dad's orders) so I threw it on the bank so I could say it was dead:p the weight was taken on a certified butchers scale at the local grocery after the fish had been out of the water for ~1.5 hrs.

    The bass was caught on a June day right as a front blew in. We had 2 fish around 2 lbs each before the feeding frienzy and ended up with 12 more all over 5 lbs including the big one above and two more at 8.5 lbs, 3 fish in the 7.5 lb range and 2 right at 6lb 12 oz. Cleaned a couple of the smaller ones and 2 of the 4 lbers for the owner and release the others in the pond behind the house. They haven't let me fish since......
