Thanks mate

Yeah growth rates of the Bullen Merri bass will be off the charts, but not sure of the point of getting the otoliths - Fisheries will know the age of the oldest fish, so that’d be the worst-case scenario.

[@colbylesko]

Fisheries don’t know how long the bass live in this lake so by knowing how old this one is can get some idea

[@mmmbass6068]

@@colbylesko like most bass that aren’t eaten by something else, they’ll live for yonks. My guess is 40+ years. Though maybe the BM bass will die of obesity.

@@mmmbass6068 yeah oldest one ever been aged from here that I know is 16 years

Not kidding, I went there on the weekend for my first fish since I moved to the area and both you and Worst Elling posted videos in the last few weeks from there. I'm Gunna really give those lakes a crack this year. Great bass 💪
