I caught a 17 inch bass that weighed 6 pounds i'm getting it mounted. when I get it back i'll try and post it.

Congrats I'm going to guess Largemouth? It musta been fat to weigh 6 pounds at 17 inches

did eat eat a 4lb lead weight?

Well no, he swallowed an 8 pound chub LOL...

IT was a largemouth and no he didn't eat any of that stuff. I caught him on a plastic worm. I'm 12 and that was my biggest bass.

i dont believe it till i see a pizture until then i say about 3 lbs if he caught a fish

if it was 6 pounds it would have had to have a 25 inch girth which is pretty outrageous fo a 17 inch long bass.

For being 12 a 17 inch bass is a good one to be proud of though I do not beieve it wieghed close to that amount. Congrats on your bass young fella..
