More on potential world record
There is more at the FLW site on the big bass caught in California -
http://www.flwoutdoors.com/highResPh...=5BC36B5D-508B -7619-A6D9A0BE19F27A62 Interesting thing - the fish was 29 inches long and 25 inches girth. On Charles' caculator it would weigh20.138 pounds. Perry's bass was 32.5 inches long and 28.5 in girth - the caculator shows 29.331 pounds for that one. Even if Perry's fish was really skinny, and this one really fat, the measurements are quite different. You can click on the picture for a bigger one - that picture just don't look right. Maybe I am just not used to seeing such a big bass! Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

Only one picture? Fishy indeed. It appears she not only let go the
"record" fish, but she was in an awful hurry to do so. Nothing about this story makes sense.

I agree... if they had the sense to "properly" measure the fish, surely they
would have known to have it witnessed by someone other than some guy sitting on the bank. -- Visit Charles at: www.thebasspro.net www.secretweaponlures.com www.outdoorfrontiers.com www.midtennclassic.org "go-bassn" wrote in message ...

IMHO they won't allow it. First, the story has holes all throughout it.
Second, what is to stop the next person with a big fish from simply filling it with lead and then finding a non-fishing person to confirm it's weight. "RGarri7470" wrote in message ...

You're right as rain there. You can really see the difference in the
relative size of the guy's hand by the tail fin. Unless the woman is 7'10" tall and the guy is 4' 11", it isn't even close. If the powers-that-be allow this clintonesque maneuver to get through, they might as well throw out the whole record system. hmmm.... how about the world record space alien fish ? should have a picture here somewhere ....
