^^ Nailed it ^^ That's just it, if you weren't there, then you're in no position to know the actual weight and size of the fish. Even if you think the fish is "obviously" smaller than what is claimed, if you weren't there, you don't know. So just admire a pic of a great fish and be done with it. Seriously, if you feel your honor, reputation, or "big fish club" is somehow damaged by some other guys' fish, you have bigger issues in your head to deal with. LOL!

Yup, that's EXACTLY the reason why they're there. I had a lot of people ask for such a list for the same reason. I used to have a dedicated page with all the sponsors logos and ads on it (you old timers will remember that), but people wanted something easier to access. Hence the list of logos on the right side of the forums on the desktop version. We haven't been able to code it for the mobile version and still fit on the screen nicely.

^^ spot on ^^ Frankly I don't care if somebody embellishes how much a fish weighs. It doesn't affect my life in any way. Don't get me wrong, I love to see a huge fish as much as the other guy. I just don't care about the actual weight. A big fish a great to admire regardless of the actual weight stated.

Answer me this - why is it that whenever somebody posts a picture of a terrific catch (e.g. a huge bass), there's always some yahoo that says it's Photoshopped - probably from some guy who's never used or seen Photoshop to begin with. Seriously. Many photos these guys say are "Photoshopped" aren't even possible to create in Photoshop. Or the latest one I saw, some dude commented that the fish in the photo was a fiberglass replica. Ya, the guy hauled out a fiberglass replica with him out on the boat just to take a picture of him holding it. Ya right. How do people come up with trash like that? Why do people - who weren't there when the pic was taken...who don't know the person in the photo....who have zero first-hand knowledge about the catch or the angler who caught it, have to make up garbage like that and downplay somebody's Personal Best moment? If you haven't guessed by now, it's a pet peeve of mine. This sport is so small and shrinking, that there's zero space for negative attitudes like that anywhere. It's not needed, not necessary, unwarranted, and just plain old juvenile. To those that make comments like that - grow up or take up another sport! Take your false accusations elsewhere!
