Re: new world record?

Most 10# + fish I have caught lasted no more than 1-1/2 minutes tops. Dis
have one that took about 2-2 1/2 to get in but  she came off a bed in
shallow water and was on 8# test. She was the exception to the norm. My
experience and many of the other big bass guys I've talked to is this. 10#+
fish don't fight all that great. The best ones for a battle are the 5-8#
class.
However, I have noticed that each lake seems to have a different "battle
co-efficient" for the fish. The big ones in Castaic often come in like limp
rags. The ones in Casitas fight a lot harder. And don't even get me started
about tidewater bass. They are a whole different catagory of their own.
However, the subject and the bass in question was not a tidewater fish.
