i think a better question woudl be

woudl you rather catch a 6 pounder and have a camera or catch a 9-10 pounder and have no camera

interesting question dave.   i also like the camera vs. scale question.  which would it be worse to forget?  hmmmmm.   anyway, i always keep a cheap $4 disposable camera in my tackle box in case i forget my digital one.  no more worries about not having a camera.

i would rather catch the fish every one might not believe me but i know i caught it.

lol all this stuff has happened to me when i caught my PB of 10.2 pounds i just had to use the bass calculator with 26 1/2 length and 18 girth because i forgot my scale lol

and when i caught my 9 pounder i forgot my camera but i brought my scale lol so i was going back to the dock to ask my dad if he had his which he didnt of course, and then i see this random guy and ask him if he could snag some pics with his camera phone which he did and he sent them to my email, the picture quality blowed but i still got some pictures at least and i thank that guy alot lol but even he wasnt there i would still have the memory of catching that hog  

I can't answer this one,....I don't forget my camera.

If I caught a 9lb bass here in Wisconsin and didn't have my camera I would be throwing it the live well and getting on the phone to get someone there.

If it was a smallie it would be a state recored (well if it was 9.2) and either way I'd be getting a replica made.

Definitely rather catch the fish.  Though I love to take photos to help me remember the fun I've had, I rarely fish alone so someone would be at least an eye-witness for me.
