Did you weigh it? Looks more like it weighs around 5-6 lb.'s to me

Granted it's a nice fish.

i bet hes telling the truth it may look like a smaller one but he is holding it in towards his body unlike some other fisherman who try and make their catch look big by extending their arms as far out as possible

yesjacker · « **Reply #8 on:** Mar 03, 2008, 10:37 AM »

id say 7 or 8 lbs. i dought that its ten.

miket. · « **Reply #9 on:** Mar 03, 2008, 11:01 AM »

well , i am still looking for the pic with the bulka grips. i will post it when i come across it. never measured its length and as with all my fish she was released to swim another day. i also have a few pics i will post that were pretty incredable to me. especially a catfish on a tip-up that was even bigger.the cat fish was from my thigh down to the ground with his tail lying on the ice. like i said, i have to dig out some of my pics i have ,now that i know this can be done. thanks to whomever was kind enough to pull the bass pic over here to shanty. i know there was disbelief and uncertainty and not being able to show pics was feeding the fire. i have no need to tell stories because i have been doing this for a very long time now which left me with great memories and photos. thanks once again and more pics to follow once i dig them out.

minnowguy, i never measured it but can tell you he was longer than my shoulder width, and thats with a bulky winter coat.

miket. · « **Reply #17 on:** Mar 03, 2008, 08:41 PM »

nope, was inbetween 10lb and 10.5. i will find and post the bulka grip pic.

cp13 · « **Reply #18 on:** Mar 03, 2008, 09:02 PM »

Ill believe mike, he looks like a smaller guy ( no offense mike lol), crappieslayer...your arm is extended towards the camera, thus making your 6 look like a ten...Mikes arms arent extended barely at all...I dont get why everyone has to come on here and debate about someone elses fish because they dont think its as big as the poster says..

ebrooks22 · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 03, 2008, 09:32 PM »

yea i seen loreny pull that fish out jus fit threw a 6 inch hole but ya there both very nice fish guys

Aucoin · « **Reply #21 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 07:24 AM »

Yes it is a very nice fish, and I'm jealous that I haven't pulled one that size this winter, but when I see 10 lb LMB I would expect to see it caught in Texas or California not ice fishing in CT. I would believe it if it was hooked up to a digital scale, and not one of those cheap spring scales. I would say this fish weighs 6 give or take a lb. Pictures can be decieving(sp.), and I could be wrong, but I fish tournaments and see bass weighed every weekend during the open water season.

spartaman12 · « **Reply #22 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 08:34 AM »

exactly what i was saying- that 6 lber looks huge because hes holding it like hes allergic to it

i beleive its a 10 lber

miket. · « **Reply #23 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 08:53 AM »

still looking for pic with bulka grips, but thanks for the comments, more pics to come when i get a little time.

AirManCam · « **Reply #24 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 01:00 PM »

Its a nice fish, but no way its in the 10lb range. I've caught a 9lb largemouth out of ny, and it was just stupid big. Its belly was just sagging. And it was right around 24". Heres my 5lb largemouth from this winter, and I'm not extending my arms in the picture either.

I should also add I caught it while jigging smelt in shallow water, and that hardly came through a 6" hole, so I don't see a 10lb bass coming through.

musky-man · « **Reply #25 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 01:25 PM »

seriously guys why would he ly about the weight? i say it looks around 9 to 10 pounds . it prolly measures about 25 26 inchs.. look at the fish compared to the guys body its just as wide as his shoulders

troutguy1377 · « **Reply #26 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 01:33 PM »

I have to say that miket. fish looks bigger than both of the other bass posted but not sure if it hits the 10 lb mark. but why post a picture and lie about the weight.

And who cares anyway go catch some trout

livinbass · « **Reply #27 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 01:41 PM »

Nice fish did you let it go?Lookks to be bigger than 8

scavengerj · « **Reply #28 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 01:54 PM »

Nice fish!!!

All this numbers stuff and trying to guess the weight from a picture??? All may be close, some not so close only true test is a scale.
The recent Maryland State record bass was caught in Jan.
Here are the stats
Length 241/4" long
19.5" girth
According to biologist, comparative weight/length charts show that this fish was very heavy for it's skeletal length.
This guy was fishing a tournament on the Potomac river and got the fish in 37° water. He is a pro bass fisher and said that he has caught several farm pond bass that were in the 23" to 24" range with weights varying from 7lbs to more then 8lbs. So to say that this guys fish ain't 10lbs?

Come on guys, its a great fish. Bass guys are so

competitive!
