man thats a nice fish. for weight i cant tell and i think the only who can is you. it looks really long though. 24 inches? wozer

thanks bro.

i would say shes around 24". i really need a scale , measuring tape or both lol.

so i think i cought the same fish today, lol. got some pics but havnt uploaded them yet. looks very similar in size , weight and pattern , so im assuming its the same bass. this time i got her on a 5" trick stick in his 'bull frog' color. i kept it in a bag with other colored plastics so it had more of a swirl pattern. either way , she fought hard today digging on the bottom , trying to shake my bait out.

after that, i went to the dock and lost a couple decent sized ones that were hanging out in the brush along the shoreline. couldnt of been more than 3 FOW there. i definitely pulled an ike when i lost those. thankfully no one was around to hear the wrath ;D i really need to give those straight shanks a shot. BPS , here i come!

Congrats again bro but honestly it might just be a different fish. The first catch doesn't seem to have that dark circular birth mark like the second pic does right below the lip. Wish I was out there we could have weighed that big mofo. lol!

congrats bro!!  i have fished Quiet Waters Park quite a bit and it's pretty nice.  there's more than one lake there, which is nice and you can rent jon boats and trolling motors.  we should put together a little shore fishing or jon boat tourney there one weekend.  it's $30 to rent a jon boat for the day.

I really need to call Quiet Waters and other parks like Markham to see if they'll let me launch my jon at them as well.  Hell, I'll pay the rental fee if I can use my boat.  I'm game for doing something one weekend though.

good point. though the first pics didnt turn out that great/detailed because of the sun , im starting to see differences too. just means theres more big fish in that lake  ;D

btw , which scale do you own?

I believe it's the 25# Tube Scale by Rapala.
