Go to the link below and read the article, and see the pic's of the 18 lb'er that was caught in California. Talk about a fish with a big GUT!



The 'message' is a little long, but you can imagine what the guy was going through.

It was great seeing the pic's. Especially the ones where he turned it loose. Had to be an incredible feeling.



And if you really want to see something, take a look at this page (below). This guy really knows how to boat big bass in California. I'm speechless.

What a super toad! Man would I love to haul a hog like that! I know Jim and I got excited about his 8lber, can you imagine more than twice that size??? Geeesh, guess I'll have to arrange a trip to CA some day. That one fish weighed more than my whole limit on day one of the 'start last year! Theres some perspective.

I used to fish that place for trout a few years back (before I got the bass bug) and I caught a few trout (less weight, but short and fat) that looked alot like that....maybe it's the water?
