Resurrecting an old thread. I call them horses sometimes

Fourscore and twelve years ago....

 

Big bass, it's "dank"

For big pike, it's "German Shepherd with fins"

For the last three years I'd have to call them rare. 

Swamp Donkey or Sow Belly

 

 

This topic reminds me of this old Quantum commercial

12 year old Fish Chris thread, interesting reviewing this old thread with very little new terms added.

Ike ruined "it's a giant" the term I used for DD bass over 15 lbs, Ike calls anything over 15" a giant.

I have used those terms to my fishing buddies based on their size: 

 

Squeaker, Torpedo, Toad, Holy Molly, Drag-Puller & "The Fat Girl"  

GreenPig & Weed Donkey

Hydrilla Gorilla in my best Zona voice or G-G-Giant Bass.

I use my ex's name for big, fat bass.

I usually call a larger than typical bass, a Chunk or a Toad or a Tank !

What was his name?

Green trout

ditch pickle

nw names said about bass by some trout/salmonid pursuers. 

When a largemouth bass is over 24 inches it is as long as a legal black grouper so I sometimes give these big bass the nickname of green grouper.

When I catch'em they are Hawgs . When other catch'em they are flukes .

Slaunch, chunks, slobs, pigs, hawgs, tanks, toads, donkeys, and giants ?

bucket mouth ...

 

green trout is what folks in the great state of louisiana call the largemouth bass ... is where i first heard it ... in the marsh ...

There's a bunch of salmon and steelhead anglers up here that refer to bass fishing as "fishing for green trout."  I always chuckle when I see your screen name.  That group is a little nuts.

Walmart Girl

 

"Tank Williams Jr." managed to come out of my mouth last weekend...

Call me old fashioned or simple minded but I still just call em big uns.

Yeah I heard some guys who favor salmon/steelheads call bass ditch pickles too. 

Easily "swamp donkey" for me.

I keep it simple.

 

5lb below is a good one, above 5lb+ are/that is a giant SOB.
