fishing user avatarmattm reply : 

Nice fish.  I agree that your fish always appear the healthiest.


fishing user avatarSam reply : 

T-Rig,

It is about time you caught something!

Smile in your next pics, too. ;D

Keep 'em coming as we are not going fishing in Richmond due to the ice storm on the way and it is great to see what the other guys are catching.


fishing user avatarBassinWill301 reply :

I can cover that one for him, if he doesnt mind.  No, they dont have 10lb bass where Trig is.  He has the record, which I believe is at or around 7+

Lots of healthy, fat fish....no DDs yet.

Thanks speedbead. Yes, that's right. There has never been a DD caught here. As far as I know I hold the record with 7.9lbs. Last year the where a few 7lb.+ fish caught but the magic mark of 8lb. has not been reached. Here is my PB of 7.9lb.

fishing user avatarpaul. reply : 

man!  that is a beautiful fish daniel.  with fish proportioned like that it won't be long before there's 8's and then doubles.  like i said, i'm just blown away by how fat those fish are.  the top fin nearly touches the tail on that one.  forgive me for being culturally ignorant, but how long have bass been over there anyway?  wouldn't the climate support the production of double digit fish there?  it's not that much colder than over here is it?  and by the way, congratulations!  it's very cool that you are a record holder.  i didn't know that.  maybe you'll break your own record this year.  here's hoping. :)

WOW!

fishing user avatar.dsaavedra. reply : 

nice fish t-rig!!!

those are really pretty chunky fish you got over there.

it must be awesome holding the country record. we're cursed, our country record happens to be the world record ::) making it even harder to beat. oh well it is twice as special for whoever beats it.

what is that hanging out of the second bass' face on your original post?

Bass have been around for about a 100 years and the last time they where stocked was in the 50's. There has never been a DD caught and I don't think there ever will. The biggest I have seen was about 8lb. but I couldn't catch her. An 8lb. fish around here is like a 15lb. fish in California. :)

I'm sure if there was some fresh blood stocked we could have DD's in a few years.

The climate would support DD's but I think the bass here are a strain that just don't grow any bigger. The lake never freezes and the water temps. in winter drop to the low 40's. I also think this is caused by inbreeding. We need some of those F1 bass over here. 8-)

Spring fever isn't that far away now...

How cold is the water in this beautiful lake right now ?

About 7 celsius. I was really suprised that I caught a bass on a spinnerbait with the water being so cold.


fishing user avatarMaxDal reply : 

wow my mistake ! Spring fever is still a long way ...

Last year I caught a bass slow rolling a 1/2 Single Colorado on Dec. 28. And the water wast just above the freezing point.

:o I will have to re-arrange my tackle for tomorrow. I did not have any strikes on spinnerbaits all February!!


fishing user avatarFish Chris reply : 

first off, what the others said > Yes, those are some nice, healthy bass. Good job !

But I'm totally tripping here..... How is it, that I'm the only one here who doesn't know what species of fish your holding in the first photo ? Or, the only one that thought to ask..... or, that I'm the only one that noticed that that first photo is not a bass ?

Geeez, I thought I knew pretty much every fish in North America.... and 98% of the freshwater fish, and 90% of the saltwater fish on the planet as well. But that one has me stumped.

Uhhhh.... maybe an Asian Grass Carp ? ......but then I thought they were almost totally plant eaters, and that one ate a crankbait ???

Am I the only dummy here ?

Will you please clue me in ?

Thank you,

Fish


fishing user avatarT-rig reply : 

Chris, it's a European Chub. Look here:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_chub

Why don't you send me some of those big california bass. :)


fishing user avatarMaxDal reply : 

Yop Chris, We're ready to give away all those chubs for a couple 10 pounders .. deal ?  :)

The chub is not much of a fighter but when bass are standing you up, it's always nice to have a couple of chubs taking your topwator lures.

Even caught on texas rig with bruh hog ...weird fish ! And even one on a Real California 128 once .... :o

Sorry Daniel, didn't see this one.

Well the bass wasn't really big... 40-45cm (15"-17") (.... But a chunk of a fish !

Caught on the trailer hook and barely felt the strike.


fishing user avatarT-rig reply : 

Caught this fat pig of a chub yeasterday. I wonder what he ate! :o
