Update, 06/20/25 first 2.5# bass was caught 08/25/25 we caught our first 3# LMB 10/18/25 the first 3.5# LMB was caught in our pond Today 12/26/25 the first 4# LMB was caught. It was right at 18” We caught 3 LMB today and they were all very fat, We also caught a 17” - 3.54# There has to be something positive going on to get a 4# LMB in Kansas after 2 years Maybe this is just normal IDK Seems as though they have taken off in the last 3 months even with the water temperature being below 50* for a vast majority of the time
