Went to the dam today before work and tossed a spinnerbait around....and caught my personal best smallmouth!!! Actually caught my pb, and then broke it again just a few cast later!! The biggest was close to 21” and had to have been 4lbs or close to it!!! First pic is the biggest one.

Don’t worry, she swam away in a hurry!! I also poured my Mountain Dew down its throat. That little trick DOES work for whatever reason.

Nice fish Skillet! If it was 21" it was most certainly 4lbs and very close if not 5lbs. Even the skinniest 20" smallmouth is easy over 4. Good job buddy.

I try not to big eye them!! Lol. The pics don’t do justice. Thanks. They were a blast to catch. Considering going Saturday morning

Skillet, do you remember Jimmy? He also gaffed his fish. :D

Congrats on getting two PB's in same day.

Harder for them to get away with a large metal hook stuck in them.

You see any skipjack up there?

Nice catch. Were you fishing from the bank?

Skillet I need to get you in my boat on Dale Hollow lake a few times and you will catch a few smallmouth that size. They are spawned out and a little more work right now but this spring was just unbelievable for 3-5lb smallmouth on that lake

Nice catch

I’m game!!! I’ve been wanting to get on Dale Hollow since I was a kid. Next year I plan on doing a little more traveling and fishing. I love old hickory but there’s more to life than that mud hole!! 😂🤣

I knew you would come around. I've gotta get my boat back and get on some fish up there and we will work it out. If your spending all your time on OH then you are definitely missing out. There is some good fishing in middle Tennessee
