TT,
That is a nice fish, but in the words of McManus, "Why does it have that surprised look on its face?" :D :D

He's surprised to receive so many compliments!  :laugh:

As I recall he was about 30 ft down plotting malfeasance towards small shiny members of his own kind.

That has been a real problem here. A large nearby lake has a population of goldfish that has gotten out of control, they compete with the native species for food. Years ago a neighbor got caught raising bass in a pond, they are not native to the area. Fortunately they were stopped before entering the nearby river.

Only issue I have with that sign is the means by which it is attached.  >:(

Oh, thats funny.  Save the trout, hurt the tree.  :D :D

Lots of people use goldfish here for bass fishing live bait.  However, I would think they have a 100% mortality rate, as its hard to survive in a lake full of hungry predators when they are bright orange colored.

Well, it is just bass fishing anyway. May as well just eat the goldfish.  :D

Nah, when I come home from fishin', I'm too tired to do anything but stop by the Zaxby's for some chicken.  

About the only time I keep a fish is when its big enough I have to bring it home to stock my pond.  Like this bass I caught recently that I had to kind of fold it up to get in the cooler for the short trip from livewell to pond.







When I want fish to eat, I just reach into the freezer and pull out some of my "red trout" fillets.

   Don't you guys get fooled by Robert's bass in the cooler trick either. That's an old trick - that is actually a cooler sized for a six pack of sodas or beer. You were thinking he had a 40-60 qt cooler and 26-28 inch bass when in fact that little guy barely make's 6". :D :D

For those that read McManus in Outdoor Life, did you also look for "NINA" in the illustration, that was my wife's favorite part.

"Red trout" looks suspiciously like Woodmizer orange.  Also its lips are too big. ???

Gspren, I had forgotten about NINA in Hirschfeld's drawings, I always used to try to find them

K-guy, if you catch a trout and it's maybe a little small, let me know, I can help.  Here is my son in law with this nice sized bonito we caught last year.  We use them for bait. 



However, after removing the movie magic, here is the same fish real size.
