State record bass lawrence county

[duvhntr]

I think back in the 50's.. the state record 14 pound large mouth was caught in sugar creek , lawrence county.. anyone know where this creek is located exactly?
Also the new state record is 15 something and was caught in the chic i think..

Sugar Creek flows into Alabama south of Minor Hill. I don't think the Lawrence County portion of it is much more than a ditch. I could be wrong, just going from memory.

pretty much. there used to be a pic of the guy by the creek and it looked like a small creek with a deep spot in it.

TWRA says it was out of a deep hole a quarter of a mile long and 10-12 feet deep on a property owned by a Mr. Crabb, near the Giles Co. line, using live creek minnows. old boy was fishing for rock bass...

That's not hard to believe. I swear Giles Co has to be the rock bass capital of the world.

i surprised no one caught the 17 pounder that TWRA shocked up 14 years ago. i imagine that gal is dead and gone by now though.

i know a couple of 12's and 13's that were caught out of that lake a few years later.
