These are Northern Bass not the Florida strain down South or out West. In California they have hybrid Florida/ Northern Bass that can push 18 lbs. I have seen some of these brutes push stocked Rainbows on the shore gorging on them at San Vicente lake in San Diego. They would fish 10-12" swimbaits for them. My pb was around 8 lbs. On a crawdad at Southerland Lake in San Diego.
They eat rainbows here, too
