Sent from my EVO

:*****:

Actually was with Bruce.

Cuzzz we catch the biggest trout in the State,,,,, and we don't make fishing shows trolling rattle traps or have a super hero like chink catching 18lbs trout on croker and eating them

:eek:

Conpared to what?

Compared to what? Saltys pool ?? But Breton sound makes" big" lake look like a punk bish

BIG Lake P!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Chink" can outfish anybody when it comes to biguns...........9 trout weighing over 81 lbs? That's skrong. :smokin:

If chink had to throw artificial he would scratch most trips....he is lucky he don't live in Texas....they would crucify him!!! Its already bad that Texas is trying to make a croker a game fish so they won't use them for bait.....*****

Off topic! Seriously, how did the lake come up with the name? It shore as hell ain't "big".

always have wondered this myself..

Columbus named it when he landed at Hebert's Landing. He was a pilgrim...:smokin:

Cuz W's midget arse with t-Rex arms make it look so large! All those 12" trout he catches...well, even they look big against the "midget squat!"

....small lake

....more like pond

Like Blue said.......the 1st group of Pilgrims landed and saw all that water and those nice bayboats catching trout,,,, they gathered up and set sail on all the boats catching fish..... Once they go home that night one pilgrim said....we need to name this lake that's so big.... So rest is history

Is it even as big as Sabine?

The reason I thought of this is...I was drivin across the eastern end of Lake Pontchartrain today...the narrowest part of the lake and it's still twice as wide as "Big" Lake.

Probably due to comparison of other local lakes (Prien & Lake Charles)...it's BIG.

I concur
