I know I'll get laughed at with this one but yesterday (not feeling all the well) decided not to go fishing but to fish on the Wii with Rapala Fishing Frenzy. Been fishing this tournament for a while and I was to catch over 30lbs fo fish in 25 minutes on Lake Okeechobee. Well I did it with my first to fish caught (a dream for all of us) and decided to keep (pretend) fishing. On the last fish I caught came in at an outstanding 32" and weighing 36.19lbs... ...now is this at all possible and even for this lake :-?

If you're talking about bass, that's not possible in any lake unless there was a genetic fluke of absolutely monumental proportions.

36.19lbs.???? One word-

;D

For a largemouth bass, impossible.

exactly what I thought...no way on earth could a LMB get that big in any water...

    Who knows, there could be a 50 lb, LM swimming around, but nobody has caught her yet.

highly unlikely, and certainly mostly impossible for that to be true........

the size of LMB seems to have pretty certain limits, although it is true that you can never underestimate nature........ and the SUPER RARE, once in a million years----- genetic freaks that it may produce!!!!

so....... i dont believe that it is completely impossible, but the chances of me winning the powerball for 5 consecutive weeks are far more likely

    Powerball for 5 weeks or catching a 50 lb. LM.  

    Thats a tough choice!!!!!!!!!

wow,  i didnt quite realize what i was implicating with that comparison......

but your correct, go down in the record books for catching the largest bass that has, and will ever live.....

or be filthy rich, beyond my wildest dreams......

im a fisher at heart, but i would certainly take the $$$

although, i would want the fish after the $$$ :'(

I've got only two questions.

Where is the Wii?  Where can I get a Rapala Fishing Frenzy lure?

I would even say it's impossible to catch two 15 pounders in the same day on lake "O".  Even in a life time for 99% of the people who fish it.

Well it sure looks like Larry Dahlberg's holding one in the opening of "Hunt for Big Fish"

:-?You mean to say you've never heard of Lake Wii?  And I thought all Rapala's were Fishing Frenzy lures.

big bass are between 20"-24" and usually between 7lb-15lb

big muskies are between 45"-55" and weigh 25lb-50lb

what i'm getting at is for bass that only get around 2 feet max, the weight is unrealistic

different fish, different stucture, different build = different weight at the same lengths

Or just catch the fish & live off the endorsements. They don't call it "The Million Dollar Fish" for nothing.

anything is possible, perhaps there's a giant one in the south, that no one could get to. from what i have seen, evolution and location pays a big part. ever see the giant Nile perch in Egypt. Compare that to the perch we fish for. what can you say, there could be a gargantuan bass species somewhere in the world.

Exactly. No other way to put it.
