Put your finger on the top of the bass' tongue if there is a grisle like patch on the tongue it is a Kentucky Spotted bass. This is proof positive.

"Might" be a Spot. More that I look at it. Nice Fish, either-way. Thanks Bittercreek

Definately a good ol' LMB. Nice catch though.
You know the old saying
If it floats, flys, or f___s it is always cheaper to rent!
You have to decide which is more important.

Put your finger on the top of the bass' tongue if there is a grisle like patch on the tongue it is a Kentucky Spotted bass. This is proof positive. I have caught a few largemouth with a tooth patch on the tongue. Definitely not the best indicator. The best indicator though is the mouth. If the jawline goes past the eye its a LMB. If it goes to the eye then it is a spot. http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/pwdpubs/bkbass_diagrams.phtml

Thanks guys, I thought it was a largemouth...just curious. I've not caught a lot of spots, and a lot of times i dont check jaws, tongues, etc. This one I just wondered about...I was 95% sure it it was a LM.
