2lb, 4 oz. Nailed a 2" pink Berkely Powertube. Have a picture on my phone, but I don't know how good the camera is. We'll see...

Ah - the tubes, the tubes! Nice bud! Were you shore-tangling or floating? If I can get past 'the enforcer' - might have to give it another try there!

Ironically, I only used the power tube for a brief period. I was amazed that none of the panfish care for them! That bass was the only thing I caught on the tube...

I'm running a 14' aluminum boat with a 15hp motor. I get right up into the shoreline amongst the trees. And I mean RIGHT up. The fish don't really spook. I motored in, and make all sorts of ruckus in the boat, but that bass nailed my bait shortly after stopping, and only about 12 feet away.

Which is good, because I don't think I could do Stealth-Mode if my life depended on it...

P.S. saw multiple float-tubers out catching yesterday.

I was fishing out there a few weeks ago though, doing basically the same thing as you; catching the bass up shallow near shore.

It made me laugh because I spent all this money getting a nice bass boat and then I was catching the fish 4 feet of the bank. [cool]

Too bad the enforcer, AKA Robo cop has made me decide to never fish that underwater swamp again.

Nice fish bro!
