I'm getting a pet bass.

While you're all taking your dogs for a walk, I'll be walking my bass. Don't judge me.

He could be the Tiger King of the Bass fishing world....he's never going to financially recover from this ?

My buddy had one in an aquarium for years but didn't take it for walks.

Oh yeah, this is gonna be next-level! A real chick magnet.

I've considered an aquarium with some locally caught small fish but decided it would be a money pit.

 

 

However, taking a bass for a walk would be cool.

Back in the 70s, Tom Mann had a pet bass in his aquarium.  He named it Leroy Brown and it grew quite large.  It became famous and we drove by his factory in Eufaula to see it.  It died of natural causes in 1980

And there was a big funeral attended by more than 500 people.

Invest in a decent cover for your tank.  They will jump the hell out.

[AlabamaSpothunter]

BamaBass on youtube has documented an extensive history raising Bass and Bream in various sized tanks.

 

They will indeed jump out of the tank.     He truly has "pet" Bass, one even got into the pounds, and now has a transmitter in it and is swimming in a 5 acre lake.   

 

It's extremely hard to keep a Bass alive in an aquarium.

For the record, I'm not actually getting a pet bass. I just so happen to come across that ridiculous carrying tank and thought I'd share.

Don't show that picture to the guys at Tactical Bass'n.  They will make a video about it, and the Bait Monkey will be all over my back, trying to get my to buy the ridiculous thing, all the while telling me Mat and Tim have one, it must be an absolute must for every bass angler to own.  I have enough problems dealing with the Monkey after one of their swimbait videos, I am sure I don't need a pet bass walker.

Ain't that the truth...and the video will be 18 minutes long as Matt and Tim discuss the best ways to walk with it and what you should wear to get the most out of your public display ?

Why not just wait for a heavy rainstorm and walk your fish like a normal person?

I was thinking while I'm fishing in my boat and can just put him on a leash for the day.

Those could replace tourney weigh in bags.
