I think you might be right Fred.
Sometimes we called them Warmouth Perch. Probly cause they were bout the same size of the perch we caught.

The Warmouth is a member of the sunfish family that has a very large mouth (bass like). It looks like a cross between a sunfish and a rock bass, but is its own species.

We always called them Rock Bass.
I’ll guess 2.25 pounds.
Maybe Georgia
🤔

Fred... I remember thinking the same thing when I once saw a picture of one. There's a close resemblance as I recall. Can hardly wait to look again, when contest is wrapped up.

They're very similar, if I recall correctly, just have a longer jaw and different color pattern, Maxx.

I did the IGFA research before posting this trivia question.
The IGFA does classify the War Mouth as a separate and distinct species. No foolin!
So today's trivia guestion is in 3 parts
#1 What is the weight of IGFA world record War Mouth?
#2 What state was it caught in?
And #3 In what year was it caught?
Good luck 🤞 to all!
Don't look it up!
Don't cheat!
No foolin

Today's trivia,
Special thanks goes to Rock Hound for the best discription of a Warmouth.
Gordon, you were close, real close, with your guess if 2.5 lbs. However you were beat out by Bcmech . His guess was also 2.5 lbs, but he got the state of Florida as well.
Sorry Gordon I can't give you a boat.
And to you Bcmech 1 I can't offer you a boat either, but I can award you the Trivia Crown for the day.
Look forward to another question soon.
