rondef Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 No certificates given because of some BS no verified scale/ruler. I have pics and all paper work and dgif reasoning at my house in New Kent. I will retrive next visit. Were you fishing with someone or alone? If you had someone with you they just need to sign the paperwork stating that they confirmed your measurement of the fish in question. You can only certify a fish by weight at VDGIF approved locations. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 20, 2010 Super User Posted April 20, 2010 No certificates given because of some BS no verified scale/ruler. At some point the issue will become obvious to you. :-? Quote
TheBeast Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 (Steve)-- Would love to hit the river with ya today, can you wait 5-6 hours for me to get there. And the girl with Bubbles is Elisha Cuthbert. Yeah I caught a citation fish out of Bark Camp Lake last year but the VDGIF gave me some BS excuse like you only fished there once last year and didn't get a bite, total bullcrap!!!! Quote
Skunked in DR Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 on a lighter note, anyone wanna hit the river with me ? My friend cant make it today and I wanna go out asap. I hate goin alone so someone hit me up. Theres hardly any wind out there and it's a nice day. Plus we wont get our tails kicked on the water with my 20 foot bassboat. Launching out of leesylvania most likely. Most likely we will catch at least a few quality bass if not several Hang on...I'll catch the next plane to Dulles and then rent a car. Should be there around 5pm, good for you? Sorry, couldn't resist. It's still 60 odd days 'til bass opener here and I'm getting antsy. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted April 20, 2010 Super User Posted April 20, 2010 We wouldn't have said anything if the weights were within reason...it really can be difficult to determine weight from a picture....but...dude, those first few aren't even close. It's not like all of the people who have commented are new at looking at fish photos. We know about the arm-length trick, we know that fish can look smaller in photos, but there is no way that those fish (especially the first few) are the weights you posted. That's the only reason I even said anything... Take the "5-11" for example. Your fist is the same distance from the camera as the fish. Your gripping hand is much wider than the distance from the fish' mouth to it's gill plate. Fish over 3lbs must have a bigger head than that (except in rare occasions) much less a 5lb fish. Is this a real BOGA grip you are using? Just wondering. Quote
Super User Micro Posted April 20, 2010 Super User Posted April 20, 2010 heres another from yesterday. 6lbs9oz Hmmmmm..... Quote
A.Do? Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 heres another from yesterday. 6lbs9oz Hmmmmm..... lol, is that the real number? i can't see! anyone that knows me can attest that i'm blind. Quote
Super User Micro Posted April 21, 2010 Super User Posted April 21, 2010 I'm just busting his chops ;D Quote
mudkart Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Micro, that is the biggest chuckle I've gotten from this board in a long time. Kudos. Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted April 21, 2010 Super User Posted April 21, 2010 Ive got to hand it to him. This is the ballsiest overweight posting I have ever seen. Ever. Since most of those fish are posted as being around 5 lbs, maybe we could all post pictures of fish that went between 4-12 and 5-4 on a scale... BTW, when you put your thumb in a big bass's mouth, it should look like my avatar. Not a goldfish choking on a hot dog. Quote
NOVA Angler Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 The bigger fish in my avatar went 5lb 1oz weighed in the boat right after it was caught. At weigh-in I think it weighed high 4's. That fish wouldn't think twice about eating his 4lb 14oz fish. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted April 21, 2010 Super User Posted April 21, 2010 this fish is within an inch or two of my body. I think even you will agree that it is clearly bigger than your "4-14" it weighed 3 even. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted April 21, 2010 Super User Posted April 21, 2010 I'm going to start holding my fish behind my body. Quote
shimmy Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Dan, i would put that bass around 7.2 lb give or take recent body excretions. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 21, 2010 Super User Posted April 21, 2010 Dan's or the fish? ;D Quote
Super User Dan: Posted April 21, 2010 Super User Posted April 21, 2010 Dan's or the fish? ;D i took a 7.2lb "excretion" about an hour ago. Thanks Kashi GoLean Crunch! ;D Quote
