Biggest largemouth I ever had a chance to weigh was just over seven pounds. Have caught several in the 22+ inch range (not on the Mississippi). My brother caught one 15 years ago on a small lake in west central Wisconsin that tipped the scales at 8 lbs 10 oz. That was after laying dead in a cooler all day after a fishing trip. Biggest smallie I’ve ever caught was 6lbs 3 oz. 22.5 inches. Once again not on the river though.
I caught a 24.2″ Largemouth in May of 1971. We only had a kitchen scale but she was just under 7 1/2#. We released her but I really wanted to mount her bad. I caught a 22″ Smallie that went 6#plus. I’ll post that one wnhen I get my scanner up and running.
Wicsonsin State record correct? Can’t imagine a 9 pound smally!!!
Largemouth 22 incher caught and released from Nugget lake near Plum City, Wisconsin.
SMallmouth several 20 inch Root River pigs and one that was not measured that might have went 21-22!!!
