Super User Raul Posted October 20, 2006 Super User Posted October 20, 2006 Wheres Fish Chris? LOL : : We have two options to justify his lack of presence in the thread: 1.- He is fishing for them big momma kaliforny bass therefore he 's been busy and hasn 't jumped in. 2.- He has humbled us enough in the past and he 's giving us a break.

Daniel My Brother Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 2 Amberjack using bonitas for bait (the bait was probably bigger than my PB bass). I caught one, my wife caught the other...btw that's the boat captain, not my wife...I can tell by the facial hair. Quote
tallydude Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 You guys saw this a week ago, but here she is again on this thread, too. Quote
Fish Chris Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 Well okay guys..... Although I am certainly proud of my PB(s), sometimes I start to get concerned, that some guys might be feeling like, "Ahhh geez (eyes rolling) here he comes again", and "Who cares".... and "If I lived, and fished in Cali....." I guess I'm just constantly walking a fine line, while telling myself, "I'm not near so lame, as that small percentage of haters, would have you believe"...... But I'm not really so "great" either. I'm just a guy who loves to fish, and who has been very blessed to fish as much as I do, in the places I do. So anyway, I have certainly been watching this thread, and their are a whole bunch of beautiful fish here ! Hats off to all of you guys ! Peace, Fish Quote
Super User Alpster Posted October 20, 2006 Super User Posted October 20, 2006 Don't worry FC, most of us know you are a class act. You don't have anything to prove to this group. Most of us are bass green with *** sometimes, but we appreciate your contribution to the board. I think everyone gets a kick out of the pics of them West coast beauties you post. JMHO Ronnie Quote

Super User fourbizz Posted October 20, 2006 Author Super User Posted October 20, 2006 Don't let the haters get you worried dude. Everyone understands what size is considered big in what areas of the country. I know you realize how AWESOME some of these northern fish are that guys on here have caught. We are asking for everyones. Not "Everyone except Fish, because his are so big it makes us sad". Everytime I see one of your fish, especially your big 3, I get all excited! Nobody gets tired of seeing your pictures dude, thats what its all about! Quote

So anyway, I have certainly been watching this thread, and their are a whole bunch of beautiful fish here ! Hats off to all of you guys ! Peace, Fish First off, I just wanted to let you know that I look up to you more than any other member on here. Everytime I read your posts I'm itching to get out on the lake again. Most of the people who "roll there eyes" dont understand that you have worked your butt off to catch those fish. It's not usual for someone out of town to walk on there and wear the big ones out. If I went to your lake, and you gave me your boat, favorite rod and reel and bait, and sent me out for a month I could garuntee I wouldnt catch one of those big ones unless I got realllllly lucky. They also dont realize how many hours you put on the water no matter what mother nature throws at you. There all idiots who can bend over and take it up the rear. Dont listen to them. Keep posting those beauties. Quote
Fish Chris Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I really appreciate the kind words guys. So okay... okay. Mine is my 18.4 lb'er (18 lbs 6.4 oz). I was really just dumbfounded when I caught her. I mean, after all the research I had done in the years before that catch, I knew exactly how big of a deal that fish was. Their have been 3 "certified" bass up here in Nor Cal, which were slightly bigger. An 18lb 9oz from lake don Pedro (I don't believe the gentleman had ever caught a bass over 10 lbs before this catch). An 18.6 lb'er lb'er from the Ca Delta (this guy is quite an angler, and had caught a few over 10lbs previously). And an 18.7 lb'er from San Pablo Dam Res. (caught by a trout angler). I guess one could say, I did it the hard way.... I just kept sticking DD after DD, until one of them ended up being a monster :-) I was never that thrilled with the photos..... Wish I would have taken a few of myself, by myself..... But that would have seemed goofy, as I was pretty much instantly surrounded by people, all willing to take photos for me. So anyway.... Digital shot... The old film camera.... ......but I'm going to keep messing around until I get a "big one" !!! :-) Peace, Fish Quote
senko_77 Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Geeeee thanks FC. Those pics make me absolutely unhappy with my PB. LOL. I am going to catch one over 16. Thats my goal. You'll see it soon as pretty much all my 8+'s have come at the end of fall through winter. I have been bass fishing for 3 years now. Every winter I get a new PB. Let's hope that 16 takes a tru-tungsten jig That will make them very, very happy!! Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted October 21, 2006 Author Super User Posted October 21, 2006 Gaw! I love that fish! She is just gorgeous. She even swam away for another angler to catch! Quote
tallydude Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 FC, that is just a beautiful fish. I'm happy just looking at her. Quote
Murray Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 hey fish, do you ever get back pains from holding up those fish? ;D Quote
