WaterWolf44 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Would like to see what your biggest non swimbait fish of 2020 is. I caught this tank this fall on a keitech shad impact on a 3/8 jig head. Didnt get a weight on her but she measured 26. My pb is 27 in and 6.5 lbs. I guarantee this one weghed more. Definitely the thickest walleye i ever caught Jim137a, iFishLA, GreenPig and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkel83 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I fish a river system near me in Jersey targeting mostly smallmouth. Ran into this big girl. 5lbs even. Fluke on a chatterbait head tricked her. Jim137a, bassmaster1, iFishLA and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CG_Fishes Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) I got this 5-2 which was my biggest bass of the year... I had a bad year. She ate a 3/8oz chatterbait with a 5" diezel minnowz trailer. One of my favorite combos, the buoyancy of the elaztech keep the bait up so you can fish it superrrr slow. Just picked up some 7" diezel minnowz to use as trailers on a 3/4oz head, can't wait to try that this spring Edited January 30, 2021 by CG_Fishes Jon P, ThatKidInNY, Mason and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest river bass for me ever. Biggest river largemouth by like 3.5lbs. They’re in there man. I had a lot of time to fish when I was unemployed.

xSoCalBassKingx Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I had a really good year in saltwater and trout fishing in high elevations that made it hard for me to dedicate time for Swimbaits. Run and gun tuna fishin in my little skiff was the highlight, nothin huge but definitely a blast.

Those Magnum Maulers are some of my favorites. The Bellows Gill is another one that I Love.. Lateral Vision and GeeCrack just dropped a Collab on the Bellows Gill in an exclusive colorway called “Solar Flare”, on the Lateral Vision brand Website... You should check it out , but if not Tackle Warehouse has the Bellows. I use the 3.8, but they have a 5.8... Awesome Catch by the way!!!

CG_Fishes Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) If we are looking at non-bass I caught some big lakers trolling downriggers this summer. These are just a few, the biggest was 30.5" which is by far the biggest we have ever boated in my 5 years targetting them Edited January 30, 2021 by CG_Fishes Kyle1387, 5150KokaneeEaters, WaterWolf44 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
