LCpointerKILLA Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Here is a 5 pounder from yesterday, weighed on the Boga Grip. Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted March 24, 2010 Super User Posted March 24, 2010 Maybe a little decieving but I can still tell it's about that weight class even if you didn't tell us. If you look at the thickness of the jaw and tail and how broad the back is. That fish is proportioned well and the picture is taken properly. The ones that are harder to tell are the long lanky ones and the very short stubby footballs. The fish in my avatar is 10.5 lbs but when you got someone who can't work a camera.... Quote
LCpointerKILLA Posted March 24, 2010 Author Posted March 24, 2010 yeah the bass in your avatar is obviously huge to the seasoned bass angler's eye. This fish in my picture any amateur would think is as big as the biggest bass in the basspro aquarium lol. I think the perfect all telling picture of a fish's size and weight belongs to "Broke ju" and his Cali bass he caught on his own handmade jig a couple of years ago. I hope he reads this post and posts a picture of that fish because it's perfect to show what a monster should look like in a picture. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 24, 2010 Super User Posted March 24, 2010 Isn't that the fish in his avatar? We have several guys that post great photos of gigantic bass. Fish Chris and his recent posting come to mind. The bass pictured on this thread is a beauty, too! 8-) Quote
Captain Obvious Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Isn't that the fish in his avatar? Negative, the top fins are different Capt.O Quote

Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted March 25, 2010 Super User Posted March 25, 2010 I dont get it. what is decieving? Right.Thats what I was saying too...It's a well taken photo. Quote
Fish Chris Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Well, I'd say that that 5 lb'er looks bigger than the average 5 lb'er posted on the internet.... but on the other hand, I don't think the average photo of a 5 lb'er posted on the internet, does a very good job of conveying the actual size that fish appeared in real life ! About my photos; I often have guys say, "Yea', but your holding it way out to try to make it look bigger" to which I always reply, "I'm not holding it way out, to try and make it look bigger than it was, but rather, to try and make it look as big as it really did, hanging from my own hand, 18 inches from my face. Oh, nice fish Peace, Fish Quote

Luke at Gouldsboro Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 deceiving or not, still a good fish !!! Quote
