My New PB - NOT A BASS!
Got out on Erie today, and while the bass fishing was rather slow, I managed to snag this smallmouth buffalo. It is my biggest fish I have ever caught. Snagged her on a Strike King Series 3, and she took well over a hundred yards of line, and was pulling a Ranger Z520 sideways! We had to follow the fish around with the trolling motor so I wouldnt run out of line. A 35 minute fight later I had this 22 lb. 5 oz. Buffalo in the boat...

haha, nice fish Ryan! Those things sure do put up a fight, so I can't imagine one that big and snagged too.

22 pound, 5 ounces is a nice sounding number. Great catch.
