    I'm in southern Indiana. Been bass fishing Indiana for almost 30 years. In my opinion, a "nice" bass is around 5lbs. There are some public sweet spots in S. Indiana that hold some big 'uns. Up to 8 lbs. isn't uncommon. Bigger than that is pretty rare, but not out of the question. I'm sure there will be disagreements on this, but as I stated, it's my opinion.
