    I’ve caught some very skinny bass from the retention​ pond, but this is the worst one to date. I saw him gulp the lure and just sit there. Then I dragged him in with no fight.

    It’s closer to a crappie with that girth or lack thereof.

    Bet there is a senko type plastic in his belly. Used to see it a lot in the ponds in So Cal. Many times I could squeeze them back out. Even had one puke out a full one and a half one.

    That’s odd considering bass eat turtles and crayfish and puke out the undigestable stuff after. I am not doubting what you say, more I am wondering why they wouldn’t be able to puke out the senkos.

    That being said, I doubt it’s the case here. I am the only one that fishes it for the most part and I may have used senkos once or twice.

    I posted it to my fish strong app and some guy was like, it’s not starving, it’s a normal post spawn bass. I said do you see the atrophy and sunken eyes…not to mention it’s mid June.

    You should be ashamed of yourself for picking on the sickly ones grin

    The walleye reference is going over my head. Because it looks like a walleye? ???

    No,it’s because a walleye is as easy to catch as a starving bass. Might also be the way you described the fight it put up, reminds them of their big catch.
