c'mon man we cant take the suspense.........????

BlackBass · 05-31-2009, 06:01 PM

Well with the arm put out for the camera like bill dance, would do " thats a shore nuff gooden" Ill put that fish at an easy 7lbs with 7.5lbs being two or three ounces off give or take !

Very nice green 1.
Ill also go as far as to say it was probably caught on a reaction bait?

ExBassGuide · 05-31-2009, 06:05 PM

That fish is with in ounces of 7 pounds pluss or min.

BrushApe · 05-31-2009, 06:07 PM

Okay, I will play, 5.75. Now, get back to class you slackard.

EZOP · 05-31-2009, 06:18 PM

You look shorter then the Ex, so 4-8oz.

MikeN · 05-31-2009, 07:12 PM

7.46

rebelrednex · 05-31-2009, 09:08 PM

6lbs 11ozs

Slayer12 · 05-31-2009, 11:21 PM

Twothirteen was closest! Hit it right on the head. She went 4lb 6oz. I guess you could call it camera tricks with the Al Lindner pose. Except in this case its a not a "premier walleye". hehe. Caught off a weed bed on a jig. Thanks for playin! Have to play again soon.

Slayer12 · 05-31-2009, 11:29 PM

oh by the way...I can't claim this one. I just took the picture. still waiting to officially break the five pound mark on this lake. Came close last year but didn't have a scale at the time.

Slayer12 · 06-01-2009, 09:26 AM

not trying to mislead. nothin wrong with showing off the fish. same as sitting behind a set of horns. it doesn't make it any bigger but makes for a better picture.

Slayer12 · 06-01-2009, 09:43 AM

ok here is another... I'll give some clues this time. the bait is 9 inches long and my brother is 6'5".

Twothirteen · 06-01-2009, 09:57 AM

5lbs 5oz, 20-24" fish

1bigfish · 06-01-2009, 10:36 AM

I was thinking between 6 and 7lbs.

Josh Marthaller · 06-01-2009, 10:52 AM

5 and a half

brackshooter · 06-01-2009, 11:44 AM

Looks like its at least 23", so I am gonna say 7 1/2 lbs...

CDreiX · 06-01-2009, 12:14 PM

I'll go head and claim that first fish, that was a good day at the ol' honey hole. I'll have to guess that Matt's fish is about 6lb 9oz. she's a big'n

raptorschild · 06-01-2009, 12:59 PM

7lbs 8oz on that last one. That fish is 23 inches long by my math. hawg boss.

12pulls · 06-01-2009, 02:18 PM

23 pounds, just shy of the record. The pic doesn't do it justice

Slayer12 · 06-01-2009, 02:56 PM

nice guess 12pulls... hahaha thats good. the fish went 7.4 lbs. caught a few springs ago at Dorena Res. here is another picture. me holding same fish.

Slayer12 · 06-01-2009, 03:01 PM

someone else should give us something to guess on.

MXRacer105 · 06-01-2009, 03:19 PM

Here is an interesting one.... take a guess

A little hint, SHE was caught towards the end of May last year

Slayer12 · 06-01-2009, 04:24 PM

i'll take a wild guess... lets go with 3.9 lbs?

Long enough to go 5lbs during pre spawn, but skinny enough to go 3lbs on a shorter fish.

I split the difference at about 4lbs 1oz.

Slayer12 · 06-01-2009, 09:12 PM

I almost went with 4.1 but settled at 3.9

ling killer · 06-01-2009, 11:34 PM

3.6?

You have the right idea... and the reason I posted this pic.

This girl was about 21" long and weighted in at 2lbs 8oz

This fish defines post spawn.... skinny, beat up, and well, really ugly.

Caught her where we had been catching 4lbs fish moving up to spawn just a couple weeks prior. She had done her business and now was moving back to deep water. The picture does not do justice on how long this fish really was, but we wanted to get her back in the water, so we just grabbed a quick pic.

During the fight, when I first got a glimpse of her in the water, I thought it was a 5lbs fish....

Thought it was an interesting picture, and really shows how much these fish go through during the spawn.

Who has the next pic?

fishlipper · 06-02-2009, 07:02 AM

Remember: This was a late July fish! What do you think?

1bigfish · 06-02-2009, 07:15 AM

4lbs

MXRacer105 · 06-02-2009, 09:03 AM

4lbs 4oz.... that is a beauty of a pic. One for the mantle for sure

Slayer12 · 06-02-2009, 01:13 PM

i'll make another stab and stay with 3.9 haha

ling killer · 06-02-2009, 02:21 PM

4.2

built2fish · 06-02-2009, 04:01 PM

That is a tough one. I will go with 4.8lbs.

BassinJay · 06-02-2009, 04:22 PM

4.5, that sure is a nice fish, and nice photo all together!!

fishlipper · 06-03-2009, 11:03 AM

1big fish nailed it

. 4lb on the money. Did you go back a few years and look at my old post, or did you just nail it? This fish was caught on the Snake River in late July. We were catching tons of little fish,and I skipped my topwater bait up inside a culvert. I popped it a couple of times and let the current suck it out of the culvert. As soon as it cleared the culvert this bad boy nailed it. I sure wish I could have caught this fish in the spring.

Dang i was close! sweet story on the catch. culvert fish

Slayer12 · 06-04-2009, 01:31 PM

lets go again...
how about this one. caught mid summer on a cheeto!

fishlipper · 06-04-2009, 01:36 PM

Looks like you spend a fair amount of time over in cental Oregon for you bass fishing. Is that correct? Looking at the scennary in your pictures, other than the pic from Dorena, it looks like you are East. Nice fish again. I would guess 6lb

Slayer12 · 06-04-2009, 01:43 PM

this last fish is from Mckay res a few years ago. yeah other than the dorena fish all the other fish have been from east.

CDreiX · 06-04-2009, 09:59 PM

How bout 4lbs 7oz. How big was the cheeto?

1bigfish · 06-05-2009, 06:02 AM

I think CDreiX is pretty close on the weight. Nice long fish but no girth during the summer. Still it is a really nice fish.

Slayer12 · 06-05-2009, 05:05 PM

Dreix is correct... what a cheater! or should I say cheeto? haha I'll have to find a picture with a little more mystery surrounding its origins.

Slayer12 · 06-05-2009, 05:06 PM

by the way the cheeto was huge! we had to pet it back cause it was a big one.

1bigfish · 07-06-2009, 07:57 AM

Time to bring this thread back.

How big?

arkansasbasser · 07-06-2009, 08:16 AM

Considering the downward angle, which would tend to make the fish look smaller, I would say 3 lbs.

Okumauser52 · 07-06-2009, 09:03 AM

I'm calling 2.5 pounds

MXRacer105 · 07-06-2009, 09:14 AM

It was caught on Dave's boat.... I am going with .75lbs! Hahaha

Looks like a nice chunky 3# fish to me.
