Personal best Largemouth & Smallmouth

Hey guys just wondering what your personal best Large and smallmouth bass are. I bet there are some fatties brought in by this group. I just cracked my smallmouth personal best last weekend.

I just had a guy show me a picture of a nice largemouth caught at a small lake in the 7 lakes area recently. I said wow thats a nice fish looks like it could be 7-8lbs. He told me it was 18lbs! Oh really you just broke the state record by like 6lbs how annoying.

Anyway here are my personal bests hoping to improve them soon.

Largemouth 6.2lb Lake Shoecraft 5/2007 dock skipping a senko

Smallmouth 5.2lb Lake Whatcom 9/2010 4" yum worm on a dropshot
