Super User Grey Wolf Posted August 22, 2008 Super User Posted August 22, 2008 Nice bass , looks to be about 3 lbs. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted August 22, 2008 Super User Posted August 22, 2008 You really have to get a scale. Looks like barely 2-2.5. Looks hungry, too. Nice job. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted August 22, 2008 Super User Posted August 22, 2008 Nice bass , looks to be about 3 lbs. And he's being nice. I think you would need two that size to get to 4 lbs. 8-) Quote
JShrock07 Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Nice looking bass no matter what the weight is I would be proud!!! At least you're catching 'em WTG!!!! -Nitroman Quote
ptomacbass Posted August 22, 2008 Author Posted August 22, 2008 alright i'll get a scale. then i wont over estimate. :-[ Quote
rondef Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Congrats, nice bass Time to invest in a scale young man. Quote
Super User David P Posted August 22, 2008 Super User Posted August 22, 2008 Jig fish are always something to be proud of, regardless of size, fish looks about 2 1/2lbs. Quote
Movarus Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Definitely a nice looking fish! If you can't get a scale, get a cloth measuring tape and get the length and girth of the fish. There are formulas that can give you the weight... It's not 100% accurate but usually very close. Quote
slomoe Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Jig fish are always something to be proud of, regardless of size, fish looks about 2 1/2lbs. x2 nice fish Quote
Eddie Munster Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Nice fish; I agree it's about 2-2.5 lbs. Buy a digital scale as the spring scale I have is off from about 7 lbs and under. Quote
Super User fishinfiend Posted August 22, 2008 Super User Posted August 22, 2008 That is a nice fish no matter what it weighs. That is a beautiful fishing spot. Quote
Big-O Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Secret fishing hole, jig'n'craw, fishin night and early morning...don't get any better than that. WTG ptomacbass...great photo Big O Quote
ptomacbass Posted August 22, 2008 Author Posted August 22, 2008 got out today with the scale(an old berkley) and got a .19 kilo bass on a jig though it turns out this scale weighs a 1.7 kilo dumbell as 1.5 kilos. i'll post pictures later today or maybe tomorrow. i just need to upload the picture but i don't have much time as i am waking up to fish at 3:25 tomorrow the earliest my parents will let me wake up :'( i hope to be able to fish a jig near the grassbeds at gravelly point and the washington channel on the potomac river.

Big-O Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Another great jig fish photo...Wtg Ptomacbass Big O Quote
MattStrykul Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Are you fishin the C&O canal there? Looks like it.... Nice lookin fish, try to weigh them in pounds. Also, keep fishin that jig and you'll get your 4, 5, 6, 10lber. Jigs are my favorite, and they catch me nice fish Quote
Pigsticker Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Oh its a real "secret" hole LOL good fish but keeping that place a "secret" would be like posting a pick of the spoils on the potomac and saying lets keep that bite quiet : Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted August 23, 2008 Super User Posted August 23, 2008 Kilos????????? Where did you come up with that ? Quote
ptomacbass Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 for some reason i can't change it to pounds. also i deleted the picture so no one else finds out about my secret spot ;D Quote
Bassaholic84 Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 NICE FISH!! Walmart has a digital scale for 20 i think made by rapala. PS. Is that Near Falls Road in potomac looks familiar. By the C & O Quote
