Need Help Identifying These Bass!!! 2024


fishing user avatarSCouture reply : 

My boyfriend and I both caught bass at Lake Winnepesaukee.  He is telling me they are both small mouth bass but I think mine is a large-mouth and his is a small mouth.  My fish is first below and his is second.  Can anyone help solve this battle?

Edit: Nevermimd they their both smallies


fishing user avatarOroBass reply : 

First might be a large mouth kinda hard to tell but the second is without a doubt smallmouth


fishing user avatarCatch and Grease reply : 

Yeah I thought the first was a largemouth but thinking smallie after looking at the jaw more...

But I could count the smallies I've caught on one hand haha


fishing user avatarHi Salenity reply :

fishing user avatarSCouture reply :

fishing user avatarOroBass reply :

fishing user avatarAlonerankin2 reply :

fishing user avatarSCouture reply :

fishing user avatarHyrule Bass reply : 

definately both smallies, but i think most of yall know that by now lol


fishing user avatarMarkH024 reply : 

by the way....they're both smallies.

 

Nice fish.


fishing user avatarHi Salenity reply : 

Welcome, BTW.


fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

Smallies without a doubt. Next time if you're not sure just close their mouth and see if the bottom jaw extends past the eye. If it does it's a largemouth, if it doesn't it's a smallmouth (or spot or basically any of the other subspecies of bass).

fishing user avatarsenile1 reply : 

The mouth is the obvious way to differentiate the species, but those bronze bodies with light vertical stripes were a dead giveaway as well.  


fishing user avatarAlonerankin2 reply : 

Yea, the first pic was outta focus, contrast etc... But after the new pic was uploaded it was clear the first was a smallmouth!


fishing user avatarPaul s reply :

fishing user avatarpredator reply : 

is a joke?


fishing user avatarDILLY07 reply : 

Smallies!


fishing user avatarBrian Brazier reply : 

Smallies, the lip line and, mouth size on yours is too small to be a LM. Smallies come in different colors, most have vertical lines and are brown in color, but that can vary. They are both nice sized Smallies, SM are my favorite target.
