i wasnt being smart just sceptical :| i,ve seen pics of "15lb" bass that wouldnt push the scales over 8 or 9 lb so unless i see a picture i take everything with a pinch of salt :wink:
and shane as for you leave the bass out of the oven or theirs gonna be some ray with no wings :twisted:

Dats fair enough rodger,seeing is believing,which is why i was lookin for a photo,but a 15lb bass is possible from the area,there was an 11lb bass got in mornington a few weeks ago,photo on the same web site,and id say it was the weight stated cause it looked same size as an 11lb'r i was lucky to catch in cork harbour a few years ago,i know what ur sayin though,theres a rumour of a 12lb seatrout got in the delvin river which flows out at gormanston beach without a picture id take that with a sack of salt,if u want pic of bass go into reports archive on fisheries site

anything is possible but if someone did catch a fifteen pounder you would be singing from the roof tops! you'd be showin pictures of your fish to strangers on o connel street :P
how come these reports are usually passed on reports second hand info where if it were true there would be some guy on a tackle shop tour of ireland, walking in the doors sayin did i ever tell ya about the time i caught a fifteen pound bass? :twisted:

sure it probably wouldnt be long till your letterbox swung open with some f*cker shouting in "did i ever tell you about the time i caught a 15lb bass....... :roll:
