6303, World Record LMB Questions
Posted by gophish, Thu May-19-05 05:46 PM
Just curious if a world record bass would count if it was caught on a private lake such as LMV. My opinion is that if the general public cannot fish there it would not be considered a world record. LMV has the potential but it's nowhere near as hard to fish as a real SoCal lake. I personally caught a 14.6ld LMB offshore @ the member fishing area 4 yrs ago. I caught her in March on a 3inch grub using 8ld test. I horsed the fish in and weighed her on the analog scale provided at the lake. I actually caught the same fish again a day later on an adjacent nest. I personally don't see the challenge in bringing in a lunker if it's only in 3ft of water nesting a bed. I landed the fish in about 1 minute. Big deal, that sow didn't even put up a fight. I only spend my money in the saltwater tackle industry know. I've caught 6ld Sandies thay fought harder in shallow water. :-)
