On a Spot the jaw does not extend beyond the eye....plus a Spot will always have a tooth patch. Large mouth....even though it is rare.....can have a tooth patch. A large mouth jaw extends past the eye. It can be very difficult at times if one just goes by the color or marking on the body. Just check for tooth patch....then make sure jaw does not extend past eye....then it is a Spot.
Thankee sir! I'm gonna start makin notes like that and bringing them with me as I fish, and also lookin a little closer! Lately i've just been enjoying getting out, hookin a few and getting them back in quick.
