Caught This at a Sportsmans Show

Just thought I’d share this with you. I stepped into fishing seminar already in progress at a sportsmans show and one of the fish in the tank caught my immediate attention. At first I thought I was seeing things so I walked up to the tank for a closer look.

I wasn’t seeing things. One of the bass in the tank had something sticking out of its mouth. It was the tail of a fish it chowed down. From the looks of the tail, I believe it was a rainbow trout.

Right after I took a few shots with my camera people took notice and broke out their camera phones!!! Sorry that the pictures weren’t better.

Very cool. How big was the bass, and can you guess how big the trout was?

Thats pretty cool stuff!

That's pretty awesome.

I had a similiar thing happen at the Owatonna, MN Cabelas this spring. One of the Pike had a decent sized Sauger in it's mouth, and the tail was still kicking.

I am not good a guessing weights but my best guess is that was probably a solid 3.5lb bass. Based on the size of the tail, the trout was probably nearly in not more, 75% the length of the bass.

_{I have had a large bass eat a smaller bass while fighting the smaller bass.}

NICE!!! and people are scared to throw large baits

It looks like that bass won't be hungry for a while!

Thats pretty cool! Thanks for sharing the pics. I caught a bass last year that still had a big bream in its mouth. Also Had a small bass on that got eatin by a bigger one while i was fighting him and broke me off so I know how u feel Sam.

I've never caught one like that, getting a lip ripped during a mean must really be a drag, but....... That's fishing!

NICE!!! and people are scared to throw large baits
