I caught a nice 5.5 pound bass on Kentucky Lake last week on topwater. It was awesome, but I could not fill out a big 5-fish stringer. I catch and release only but the other fish were like 2 pounds each--maybe 8 that size.

I read an awesome story from the 1950s about a huge stringer caught on Kentucky Lake in the early days. It was a stringer with a nine-pound fish and the smallest around 4.5. This was back when you could catch 10. The story is on the website: http://behemouth.com

My fist one of the year!  13", 1lb LM!!! Caught on Green and black flake tube.  Had another on a black and blue jig with a beaver trailer but he got wrapped around the cover and I couldnt get it unwrapped and the line broke
