Lost in translation?

Salon's War Room reports on W's fish story:

"The best moment was -- you know, I've had a lot of great moments. I don't know, it's hard to characterize the great moments. They've all been busy moments, by the way. I would say the best moment was when I caught a seven-and-a-half pound large-mouth bass on my lake."

That makes more sense. We tried Googling to see if that lake was stocked with Nile perch, and only found reports that it had been stocked with bass and bait fish.
UPDATE: White House transcript says "bass."
