Super User islandbass Posted February 2, 2012 Super User Posted February 2, 2012 Caught This at a Sportsmans Show Just thought I’d share this with you. I stepped into fishing seminar already in progress at a sportsmans show and one of the fish in the tank caught my immediate attention. At first I thought I was seeing things so I walked up to the tank for a closer look. I wasn’t seeing things. One of the bass in the tank had something sticking out of its mouth. It was the tail of a fish it chowed down. From the looks of the tail, I believe it was a rainbow trout. Right after I took a few shots with my camera people took notice and broke out their camera phones!!! Sorry that the pictures weren’t better. 2 Quote
Super User deep Posted February 2, 2012 Super User Posted February 2, 2012 Very cool. How big was the bass, and can you guess how big the trout was? Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted February 2, 2012 Super User Posted February 2, 2012 Thats pretty cool stuff! Jeff Quote
lmoore Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 That's pretty awesome. I had a similiar thing happen at the Owatonna, MN Cabelas this spring. One of the Pike had a decent sized Sauger in it's mouth, and the tail was still kicking. Quote
Super User islandbass Posted February 2, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 2, 2012 I am not good a guessing weights but my best guess is that was probably a solid 3.5lb bass. Based on the size of the tail, the trout was probably nearly in not more, 75% the length of the bass. Quote
Super User Sam Posted February 2, 2012 Super User Posted February 2, 2012 I have had a large bass eat a smaller bass while fighting the smaller bass. Got me very upset. But that's nature. Kook photo. Thanks for sharing and proving why swimbaits work. Quote
Aluma-Bass Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 NICE!!! and people are scared to throw large baits Quote
waskeyc Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 It looks like that bass won't be hungry for a while! Quote
fishinkeebs Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Thats pretty cool! Thanks for sharing the pics. I caught a bass last year that still had a big bream in its mouth. Also Had a small bass on that got eatin by a bigger one while i was fighting him and broke me off so I know how u feel Sam. Quote
Phoenix_1953 Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I've never caught one like that, getting a lip ripped during a mean must really be a drag, but....... That's fishing! Quote
