Bobby Uhrig Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Its a smallie- the color changes according to its environment ,surroundings or habitat . It also changes color based on moods -water temp and stress levels. Quote
little_stephen Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 my votes for smallie. ive ran into such a variety of looks for largemouth on my lake that ive accepted that two fish from the same pad field will be the opposite ends of the coloration scale. Quote
Eternal Angler Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Even if you can't tell what kind of bass it is, you usually know by how well they fight. Smallmouth bass fight so much better than a largemouth. Quote
nashontheriver Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 this little guy came out of the white river. he was in about 1ft or less of water, but tons of rocks and ripples. i've had a couple that looked all dark like this last summer. Quote
farmpond1 Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Where is the other dorsal fin? It looks like it's just laying flat. I vote it's a smallmouth. Quote
