Hey guys,
I caught this fish about 6 weeks ago while prefishing for a little tournament but hadn't gotten around to developing the photos. Its my PB smallmouth at exactly 5 pounds!! I know there are bigger fish but I'm sure proud of it!She picked off a mattlures 6" trout in "coho" about 20 feet down over 40 feet of water!

Thanks guys! She is significantly larger than my next biggest smallie so I'm pretty excited.
Mountain bass: I'm not really sure what you are referencing but I would assume you mean a cross-breed of some kind.

Ya, it kind of looks like it has some spots like a largemouth. If its from the body of water im thinkin, it has a lot of those there.
