thediscochef Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 So going through this year's photos this caught my eye. The above fish was caught on 5/22/22 The following fish was caught on 10/21/22. Look at the markings near the tail, and on the gill plate. Note the torn lip. Both were caught in the same acre of water. So. Same fish? I'm probably 95% sure. Wanted some opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Hands Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 The markings definitely look similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Hands Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I had a co-worker that recommended a spot to me where he had caught fish recently. He also told me that his wife had broken one off. I caught fish there and one of them had a hook in it. I took the hook to him and he confirmed that it was the exact same type of hook she was using.

Blue Raider Bob Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Looks like same fish. I broke off a plastic craw in a bass I visually saw by an old railroad pier. I fish this same pier everytime I go to this water just hoping I can remove that craw from his mouth. Bothers me to no end. This big largie was just under the surface looking confused with the jig in the side of his mouth. 4 hours ago, TnRiver46 said: And his eye got poked out, maybe not the most learned individual No doubt. That is not the smartest bass in the pond, but that's the kind we fish for! The dummies! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say that craw is long gone from mister largie, it doesn’t take long 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild that it's a meanmouth I caught twice, of all things. they are aggressive little things though. This is in a cove at Lake Ray Roberts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
