Anyone notice the lack of Ohio guys posting on this? Take Erie away and your uncles farm pond and a 15 lb sack is good. 20 is phenomenal

Dang I feel unworthy ... 22 lbs 5 oz - nothing over 5 pounds - got 8th in that one day tourney
fun fishing ... maybe 24-25

North of 51#'s on Falcon in 2010. 12#, (2) 11#, 9#, 8# - All jig fishing
I had 20+ days of over 40# for 5 the same year. After January of 2012, couldn't hardly put 12#'s together. I'm glad fishing is getting better there. I had my best day in a 7 years a few weeks back. 22#.
Tournament 23lb at LOZ - 4 on a-rig, 1 on jerkbait. March 2017.
Fun fishing 27lb at Pomme de Terre (my home lake) December 2017. All on A-rig.
I used to live in FL and fished the St. Johns quite a bit. We never weighed our best 5 but I am certain we had some 30+ bags.
33 lbs on Lake Sheron Harris in N.C. It was anchored by a 9.8 lbs kicker. Catching a fish like that in a tournament was amazing. As you can imagine that lake will always have a special place with me. The BPT boys will crush them out there next week.
21lbs Potomac River June.
