I'm wondering what the ratios are..............Largemouth and White for me.

P.S. you can select more than one. Just please don't select more than 2.

Stripers and peacocks aren't bass. (I don't think white bass or yellow bass are either).

Also, you might want to add red eye, Swanee, shoal and Kentucky bass (spots),

they do count.

Technically, Largemouth, Smallmouth, and spotted bass (and a few of the others) aren't bass.  They belong in the sunfish family.

I tend to fish for largemouth only because more waters have them.  But I love smallmouth.  In a cage match, a smallmouth will take a largemouth any day of the week.  They are prettier, too.

And neither are largemouth nor smallmouth. They are actually members of the sun fish family and not true bass. However, the name stuck as it has with peacocks.

For me, given the choice, I'd fish for smallies all day, the period of the fight is almost like a drug to me. Most of the lakes in my vicinity have LMBs though so it's always a decision: within 5 miles of the house, LMB or 50 mile round trip for best chance from the shore for smallies.

If you want to get technical about it, a true bass is a striped bass and a white perch. Maybe we should just choose what species the poll asks about and not criticize it.

I fish for both LMB and SMB, but if given the choice, it's smallies for me.

I would really like to give peacock bass a try once.

I was going to walk away but I couldn't.  For those of us who really love to fish for bass (or whatever the heck you want to call them), nomenclature becomes part of the game.  No one was calling anyone onto the carpet and no one's feelings were hurt-until now anyway.  It was just in good fun.  That's all I'll say.

My feelings aren't hurt.........I could care less. But I'd say just vote for which of the bass, or uhhhh, fish that are wrongly called bass, that you fish for the most.

Peacoks sound like a TON of fun!!!!

I prefer the brown ones, commonly referred to as "smallmouth bass".

LMB. I like to fish for BIG THINGS:o) Oh yeah, I'd also like to catch me a mess of them Walleye PIKE, even though they are actually perch:o)

Largemouth, (I don't have much of a choice).  

hmmmmmm  lets think  aaaa....... smallmouth without a doubt  no conparison  to any of the other bass    the next greatest bass would have to be spotted bass   those little things are pretty fiesty   then probably your largemouth

Largemouth and suwannee bass now.

Occasionally I make the trek back home to PA and fish smallies.

Largemouth and Rockfish for me

largemouth and smallmouth for me

Largemouth

Usually largemouth but do fish for smallmouth in the Historic James River's Pony Pasture and the upper James.

Caught my last bass of 2007 on a buzzbait from a dock adjacent to the American Legion Post on the James River, about a quarter mile from Robious Landing.

It was a smallmouth and it hit my buzzbait.

Don't know who was more surprised. Me or the bass. ;D

My home lake, as well as most of the lakes around here, have both LM and SM, I probably fish for SM more in the early spring, then in late spring switch to LM, stay on them till the early-mid fall, then back to SM untill ice up.

I've always done LM but this year i'd like to target some smallies as well.

Largemouth here but smallies and spots are on my radar this year

A Texan starts this and doesn't include the Guadalupe Bass, the state fish of Texas??? Whooo boy!!!!
