To be worthy of the Big Bass Club, you must have caught and photographed a smallmouth bass of at least 15" in length in the province of Nova Scotia
And now for the big 'uns...


LAKE: First, Lower Sackville, NS

This is my first Big 'un of '98 - it was 17" in length and weighed about 3 pounds



LAKE: First, Lower Sackville, NS

LAKE: First, Lower Sackville, NS
This would be the second of the year for me, at 19.5" and weighing in at 4 pounds
And on the same day, I caught this 14-incher. Not Big Bass Club material, but it was rather exciting to catch two nice fish like this in one evening

This is Gerry St. Amand with his 19.5" beauty. It is a twin to my 19.5 incher, and was caught in the same lake a few weeks before I caught my 19.5 incher, but on the same day that I caught the 17-incher. S'ppose it could be the same fish?
And here is Rodney Squires' inaugeral Big Bass Club entry, a 17 incher (yet another case of the same fish being caught twice on different days?). Quoth Rodney as he was reeling it in: "He's F---ing HUGE!!!

Here's me with a late season bass, caught Aug. 27th. He went 16.25"
And here's another, caught mid-August. He went 19.5", with a girth of 14" (the biggest so far this year).



LAKE: Kinsac, Beaverbank, NS
Of course, they can't all be big 'uns... This little fellow is barely larger than the floating Rapala I used to catch him.
