Randall Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 I just got back from Varner and fishing was slow for numbers with only eight bites all day. But, who cares when one of them looks like this 30 1/2 inch long monster. The photo doesnt do this fish justice. It was skinny and long but the head on this thing was massive. Mouth was huge. Caught on a jighead and trickwom. I wish this fish had been eating a little more since it only weighed 11 pounds 7 ounces but had plenty of extra room in its stomach for a bunch more weight. Quote
Randall Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 Doghouse had a nice fish too. We ran into him out on the lake and he had this one to show us. It was a little skinny as well Quote

Super User Dan: Posted November 12, 2006 Super User Posted November 12, 2006 holy cow, the head on that thing is MASSIVE Quote
Guest avid Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 incredible catches guys. do the thin bodies of these long bass worry you at all? It seems to me that each of these bass looked way too thin. Quote
Murray Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 im grabbing my tacklebag and my rods and RUNNING to jowja be there in like three days...look for the little dehydrated boy. Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted November 12, 2006 Super User Posted November 12, 2006 incredible catches guys. do the thin bodies of these long bass worry you at all? It seems to me that each of these bass looked way too thin. Not really. The lake is slap full of shad. These bass are the ones that have been in deep water all summer long. Now that the lake has turned over they have come up to fatten up all winter long in preparation for the spawn. Give them a month or two and they will be monsters. Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted November 12, 2006 Super User Posted November 12, 2006 GREAT FISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Doghouse. Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 The deeper fish out there right now are pretty thin because most of the shad are up on the flats if you look back at fish like the 2 randall had early in the week they were fat and healthy but they were caught on the grass flats. the fish i had when randall took that pic i had just caught in 20 feet of water and varner is not a deep lake only around 35 feet at the deepest point Quote
RatONaStick Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Beautiful fish!! 8-) Doghouse Any idea how much that fish of yours weighed? Quote
NATHAN_JAMES Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Jig in the throat, Bass in the boat! ! ! NICE FISH!! Quote
Bassassasin12 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 monster fish once again, man o man. Whats the lake record on Varner, is it held by one of the crew? Quote
Top Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 why couldn't Stewart be just a bit closer? I have a feeling my car is going to be getting a WHILE lot more miles than it did here! AL Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted November 12, 2006 Super User Posted November 12, 2006 AL, You think Varner is good. Fort Stewart is perhaps the best place in GA for a DD bass. Six of the top 30 bass caught in Georgia were caught in Fort Stewart. These bass range in size from just over 15 pounds to over 16 pounds. And these are just the ones that have been officially weighed. There have been countless other bass in the 16 to 17 pound class caught from installation waters over the years but have never been officially recorded or reported! Quote
Doghouse. Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 RAT that bass was around 4lbs she was very thin tho i have playing with the DEEP fish at varner lately my weak side Quote
