But I was a pound short. Caught this smallmouth today on Lake Texoma. She showed 6.3 on my handheld scale. Since I was by myself I loaded up and went to the tackle box to get pictures and an official weight. Their scale had her at 5.96 lbs which was a little disappointing but this is by far by biggest and I will be getting my first replica so it is all good. She is back in the lake to fight another day.

Very nice Mark... That is a brute of a bronzie! I was thinking about hitting Texoma this weekend. I think that settles it :-)

Text me the details on where and what bait.... lol...
Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

You know you can just give me a call Mike if you ever need any information. Yesterday was a challenge for the most part. I only had 5 smallmouth for the day and nothing else was real big. It was only the second time I've been out in 2012 so I mainly just wanted to go fishing. Have you had any replicas made before? I need suggestions on a taxidermist.

Lake Fork Taxidermy.... The Pierce brothers will do a great job. They are the only ones I would consider for a replica. They did my 11 pounder and I am very happy with it.

I have not had the boat out in 2012 yet. I really hope to remedy that this weekend but the predicted winds are not appealing at all. I figured the smallmouth would be up shallower right now and your post just added to my desire to go catch some of them.
