smallmouth?? trying photobucket too?
Bear with me, trying to see if I can post a picture from photobucket. Caught this bass out of a remote pond my son and I fish- it is very different looking from the ones we usually catch... At the risk of sounding dumb, is it a smallmouth? It looks nothin like the smallmouth from the nearby river which are much more "striped" in appearance.
PS - I know the whole mouth and eyeball rule... but I'm just not that bright

smallies tend to be a little brownish.

That is definately a largemouth. They differ in color slightly from hole to hole. I catch some in a lake near my house that are almost white and some on the river that are real dark. Cant really explain why they are like that but I assume it has something to do with their environments and how they need to blend in to survive.

Zook, No spot on the tongue, but it did have UK tattoo on the dorsal fin -any idea what that indicates?
