Fish Chris Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 {just mentioned this in the "Kissing a bass" thread, but in case you were to miss that} Have you ever held a bass out in front of you, horizontally, like for a photo, then shifted the fishes head away from you, then back towards you ? I swear that they will shift their eyes back and forth, to compensate for you moving them back and forth, so that they can maintain direct eye contact with you ! Think I'm kidding ? Try it ! It's pretty strange. Peace, Fish Quote
Guest the_muddy_man Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Hey was that before or after that 6 pack you noticed this ;D Maybe thats because they are fearful of getting eaten and trying to figure a way of eascaping? Quote

Fish Chris Posted February 23, 2007 Author Posted February 23, 2007 No ! Seriously..... and I don't think it's just me. But then again, I have more giant bass swim right up to the side of my boat, and stop to look straight at me, than anybody I ever talk to, also. I have know idea why this is. {I always talk to them like, "Ahh, come on... You know you want to come in the boat to see me" ! :-)} But anyway, just try this first.... and then tell me I'm crazy :-) Peace, Fish Quote

justfishin Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 Dude, where is your wife getting those mushrooms she has been using for her cooking? I have a suspicion they are not the right ones for eating, just the ones for seeing all the pretty colors. ;D Quote
