23.5 inch largemouth on my St Croix Legend Elite 4wt rod (great rod!) with a 6wt sink tip line, and the pine squirrel craw - didnt weigh or measure the girth, but gotta be 7lb+. Note the ratty tail, I figured it was an old girl…

Very nice fish. I imagine with her full tail she would have topped 24.5 inches easily.

thats the grading scale i needed in college!
Those pine squirrel patterns like your Pine Squirrel Cheater, leaches, and sculpins should be in everyone’s box, real fish getters…
Wow! Nice fishy.
Those things don’t get that big where I live or perhaps they do and I have never caught one.
Very nice fish! Congrats
Looking good Pillcaster.

Yep.
Impressive catch for a 4wt.
