Not sure which forum to post this in.

My avatar shows my PB, a hair under 8 lbs.

This picture is of the same fish.

Question.

Does the bass look bigger in this picture?  I think it does.  It shows more of the belly.  

Whaddya tink?

OOOOOOOppps.

Looking at it now, I see that it is a different fish.  Check out the sky.

Overcast in one, blue in the other.

Hmmmmmmmmm..... so I guess I'll leave the post up, but change the question to

Which one do you think should be my avatar?

thankee.

I like the one you got now  Good set up and a nice blue sky.

I like the one you have now, for the same reasons as RoseAngler.

Falcon

I like the new one, the 5 lber!   :

Great fish!

8-)

I like the new one especially because it hides your face better.    Seriously though, the picture of the fish in the second one looks chunkier than your original avatar.  I would go with it.  

More color in and brighter in your avatar but it's your pick Avid, their both nice fish and good pictures.....the posted photo sure looks like a Florida fish to me, color-shape-head-etc.

Big O

I think the picture in your avatar is the better choice.

Hey didn't a certain one dollar a word author post that second fish as one he caugth? ;D

First one it is easier to tell you from the fish

Do you have a picture with less face?

:-/

I like the one in the avatar, but they are both nice hawgs.

I would go with the fuzzier more out of focus pic.....Oh wait....that's all your photo's........

BTW - It's great that you are back....

LOL.

Ahhhh so good to make a few grumpy ole men laugh without soiling their pants.

thanks for the feedback.  I guess I'll keep the original.  at least I know for sure how much it weighs.

I like the one in the avatar. The color of the fish shows up real well. I also like the shine on the one in the avatar looks almost like a mount. Both dandy well colored fish though.

I like the photo in your avatar, but you you need to make it MUCH smaller.   ;D

I like the one in your avatar better.

Shoot, you can make that 8 pounder look like a 12 pounder if you extend your arms  :-X

just messin' around  ;D

i like them both, and to all who said "less face"   with those bitchin shades, i dont think you can get any less!!!   ;D

I like the new one, the 5 lber! :

Ahhh Kent, you're a consistently generous soul....... ;D

I think the second pic looks bigger.  You have to cover his face and look at the size of his hand compared to the mouth because the glasses throw the whole scale off.
