Which would you rather catch...?

[Salty]

A world record speckled trout, or, a bass that breaks the current world record? A 17 lb 8 oz trout might be worth a free mount.....what would the bass be worth?

[BassAssasin]

the bass would make you a very rich man!

[swamp snorkler]

The Bass...... I'd take a worl record Sac Aux Lait

[SaltERedneck]

Bass hands down!

[Sightwindow]

The bass. Catching either one would kinda be a random thing unless you were a noted pursuer of either fish and could move merchandise for companies. The bass is more internationally known and you'd get some endorsements regardless. Trout, you'd be a legend on SC, but would be labeled as luck by a lot.

I doubt the luck would rival the dude that holds the current trout record. Thought it was a line-side and ate it.

Actually, only half the month.

[trtdds]

The bass would make you a millionaire overnight, giving you plenty of time to fish for the trout! I'm heading to Falcon to see if I can make it happen. LOL

[Bucoo]

Ill just go ahead and catch both.

The trout for me, it's more difficult.

Well salty I caught an 8.5 oz bass on lake okeechobee & that's bigger then any speck I ever caught( 6.10). Catching the bass was awesome!!! But the fishing was kinda a let down; I had to get her out the grass , but after that she just surrendered.
The trout was in top water and was extremely challenging.
Now I got a pic up on the wall @ Roland Martin place which is kool( so does my wife 8# bass)
I think as far as the experience of the catch / drama for me the trout gave me a better show.
But I'll never forget seeing that bass break the surface and the mouth open!!!

I have to agree. Caught a 9.5lb bass in my early teens and distinctly remember the fish swimming straight to me, putting up almost no fight. Caught the fish in shallow water on a parrot colored baby 1 minus and I can still replay watching that white belly roll on that bait.

My biggest speck is 6.5 and I feel that the fight is much more thrilling.

Give me the speck.

Gimmie the lottery win, the bass

George Perry was a household name growing up for me. Craig Carson was not. I'd take the bucket mouth all day. The $$$ also helps my decision.
