That's what threw me off with my initial guess, I looked at the tail not at Rich's left hand.

5lbs-2oz

Cooch would say its a 9.5 but it looks like a skinny four pounder to me!

RichThiel · Post by **RichThiel** » Fri Jun 15, 2007 12:33 pm

Bite Me & 185 were the Closiest. The scale was bounc'in from 7.3 to 7.5 then released.

The angle of the way the shot was taken does look like a bigger fish. Thanks all for participating.

Rich Thiel
P.s going out an gett'in me another one.

Show's ya what this Bassmonster knows huh?, Even if I had guessed at 9.5, my guess would of smoked his arse! HAR! HAR! HAR!

Gotta love the guy though, he ain't afraid ta step in here and shove his foot in his mouth every time he posts!

Andy Giannini · Post by **Andy Giannini** » Fri Jun 15, 2007 2:09 pm

I wonder how big a fish could look if a person really tried without photoshop. Or how about with photoshop and some clever myspace angles. I have never been to myspace but I understand average chicks or dudes can look way better depending on the camera angle. Skinnier, more fit, etc.

Howbout a small fish big fish photo winner?

Kinda like Balzar's monster squirrel?

Is this an example of the power of suggestion Cooch?

Have to hand it to ya buddy, a guess the bass weight thread would be the last place I would expect to see you chiming in .

Cooch · Post by **Cooch** » Mon Jun 18, 2007 7:48 am

Tobe and Bassmonster are one and the same! HAR! HAR! HAR!

That, or the power of suggestion has worked TWICE! No guess required of me, but I'll sure shovel the crap with ya'll!

Could you translate that to English!

Hey if you are insinuating bassmonster and I are the same person you are mistaken.

I think he and I are just giving you a friendly ribbing Cooch.
Hell, look at all the ribbing you've given Dobyns over the years.

No worries bro, we all love ya.
