Krzkev Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 I have seen allot of strange things while fishing over the course of my life, but the last few weeks I have seen some wierd stuff. My brother got a big swimbait (Bossy Mark, baby bass 6.5 inches 3.1 oz) to try to pull some of the big fish that have been chasing the smaller fish we catch and eating them in some cases. Well on about the 5th cast he hooks up to our excitment. It turns out to be a 15 inch fish with a big appitite. Then he was throwing a 7 inch senco stlye worm that look like a freaking huge cigar and catches a 13 inch fish on that. Then I was out on my lake with a friend and we come up on a big floater, hate to see that, it was fairly fresh, so upon further inspection the fish had a big spotted tilapia stuck in its throat both dead of coarse. So I thought I would share these strange greedy fish pics with you all, and see what you all think. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted May 6, 2009 Super User Posted May 6, 2009 I saw a floater on Bob Izumi's fish show, they were in Mexico, the bass in question was about 6lbs if I recall, anyways there was a fair sized tilapia stuck in his throat, the bait fish was surprisingly still alive, the poor bass wasn't so lucky.

bigtimfish Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 i am a die hard smithwick devils horse fisherman, and i cant tell you how many bass ive caught that were the same size and sometimes smaller than my lure. Quote
SoFl-native Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 d**n that tilapia looks huge! How big was that bass? Quote
Krzkev Posted May 6, 2009 Author Posted May 6, 2009 My guess is that the tilapia was around a pound or so and the bass was around 5 to 6lbs. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 Believe it or not i once found a "floater" in the 6lb range with some sort of baby rodent stuck in its throat. It looked to be an otter or something. I am not familiar with the rodent kingdom. Quote
mrlitetackle Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 ya..... hate to see it.....that fish got a little too greedy to say the least.... but just goes to show.... bass will try to eat anything that remotely looks like it will fit in their mouth Quote
