Great fish man!

Nice ones! Well done.  

Holy Guacamole batman, them be some fine bassies.

nice little pond you got there.  Is that your house in the background right on the water?

totally awesome dude.

Is the big fish tagged. Look like there is a tag right by its dorsal fin. Check it out

I reread your post and the pond is in your back yard?

So this is a Bill Dance fishing adventure?

Your back yard pond?  Not a lake or river?

Then why do you have that beautiful Triton boat?  You can just go out the back door, throw something into the pond, catch big bass, and save a fortune on gasoline.

Just kidding, of course.

Still beautiful fish.  You did good!

Have a great New Year.

yes everyone, the fish is tagged. my dad used to tag almost every fish he caughtfrom late 1996 to 1999, and in 1997 this fish was caught, tagged, and released. that day in 1997, the fish weighed 6 pounds. so this means this fish is VERY old, because remember, these are northern strain largies where i live, and remember how long it takes for a n. strain largie to grow to 6 pounds. so me and my dad did the math, and the fish has to be AT LEAST 11-13 years old :o :oand its obvious by the the head size and "shoulders" on this fish, that one time in its peak the fish had to have weighed 8 3/4 to 9 1/2 pounds, because this pond has produced MANY 8+ pounders. Happy New Years' everyone!

Initially I was surprised the fish hadn't gained two pounds in ten years, but it's early growth was phenomenal. To weigh six pounds in 1997 would have taken at least five years which would make that bass fifteen years old. I think you are right, the fish has probably lost weight as she nears her twilight.

Thats really cool that your dad tagged them. That bass knew you! Cool pictures, cool pond, and especially cool that you used a pointer--

Really great pics, Triton. Even cooler story about the tagging.
