I've was with a friend that caught a 5.8lb spot in late June 1989; from the Ky. River!!!! Caught on a small back and blue jig, right before dark, in three feet of water..on a sand flat, with one big rock, she was right next to it when hooked...That was the largest spot I'd ever seen..maybe I'll ever see in person. The fight that this spot put up also will be one I'll never forget; I had the pleasure of netting this heavy weight! And it was for sure a spot. Unfortunitly...he did mount this one for the wall; I really couldn't blame him. So when I read that the state record is 7lb+!!!!....It's just about to much for me to believe.?? I'd even go as far as saying I won't see this record broke...or the world record smallmouth be broken in my life time
Has anybody ever seen...in person...and for sure!!!!...A small mouth in double digit weight...10 pound or more...anybody...where, when..and how? Please be honest.
