1) The IGFA All-Tackle World Record is currently tied
between George W. Perry's 22 pound, 4 ounce bass caught in 1932 and Manabu
Kurita's 22 pound, 5 ounce bass caught in Japan in 2009.
2) "Dottie" was a 25 pound, 1 ounce female that was foul hooked in Lake Dixon in Sand Diego County.
3) A largemouth bass can easily swallow prey 1/3 to 1/2 its own length.
4) Big females produce big offspring.
5) The upper jaw extends beyond the rear margin of the eye, hence the name "largemouth".
6) Largemouth bass is largest species of black bass in the family.
7) Females are generally larger than males.(imagine if it were the case with humans beings)
8) Males guard the nest while females hang out on the outskirts.
9) In the wild, they can live as long as 20 years, if not more.
10) big baits catch big bass.(we can argue that one )
11) largemouth bass can sense 1-200th of a drop of a substance in about 100 gallons of water.
12) Females deposit as many as 2,000 to 100,000 eggs.
13) Can see in all directions except directly below or directly behind.
14) More bass over 10 pounds have been caught on plastic worms than any other lure on the market.
I can keep going if you'd like...
15) largemouth bass have 6 senses; hearing, sight, smell, taste, touch and the lateral line.
16) Females will usually outlive the males.
17) is considered an invasive species in Japan.
18) They can thrive, or at least survive, in almost any warm water environment, be it shallow weed choked natural lakes or very deep, rocky reservoirs with very little weedy growth.
19) Grows "smarter" with age.
20) Is one of the most voracious, aggressive predators in lakes and rivers.
21) The most glamorous species in the fresh waters of the world today.
22) Is built to probe and forage around logs, rocks, and other forms of heavily-protective cover. They have a firm muscular body built primarily for strength rather than for speed.
23) Will follow lures and prey a short distance before striking.
24) When angered, startled or
provoked into attacking a prey, the preferred feeding strategy is to strike
instantly when the prey passes within relatively close range.2) "Dottie" was a 25 pound, 1 ounce female that was foul hooked in Lake Dixon in Sand Diego County.

23) Will follow lures and prey a short distance before striking.
25) Have a burst of swimming speed of about 12 miles per hour.
26) A bass' life is one of eating and being eaten; amphibians and sunfish compete to eat the eggs as soon as they are dropped. After they hatch, larger fish are always seeking the fry. Even their own parents and other bass will feed upon them.
27) 5% of the first year's spawn will make it to yearling size, 10 or 12 inches roughly. About another 5% of those 10 to 12 inch yearlings will make it to adulthood.
28) When it's time for the babies to leave the nest, the male turns on them.(talk about good fathers)
