Baylee looks quite unique, bet she could go fast !

Buzzard in a tuxedo

I think he wanted it to be secret! Wish I had a few

Everyone knows the bass are too smart for that! 😂 (just kidding, kind of ) Tom got them all on hair jig with pork trailer I’ve got that one too

I stand corrected, sometimes I swear he lurks here

Water is coffee + creamer thick here, below a dam somewhere might be my only chance

Because if you are going to compare your data to anything before BPT was formed, people would run away from a school of 1.5-2 lb fish in a traditional tournament (or the 2022 bpt that was best 5). Whereas now they can sit on a school of 2 lb fish and win MLF keeps all score tracker data and drop shot, @gim’s favorite, is far and away the leading fish catcher year after year (Bardin et al, 2025)

I keep all my kayaks bare bones, bring 2-3 rods and a tackle bag, drop it in and go fishing after work

I’ve purchased some smoked fish in leelanau aka fishtown

You can get chain by the foot at any hardware store and if you are worried about the hooks coming off, get quick connects

It definitely all comes down to money but Chick has had some very down years as far as fishing. Seems like it boomed in 80s was bad thru the 90s and came back in the 2000s guess what they spray the heck out of it 😂 Oh yeah and a 24 yr old came in second at that classic…… youngsters have always been able to hang

There has been at least one

Come on up in ‘26! It ain’t far

As you might imagine, I’m pumped ! Always fun when they have it on your home water about 2.5 miles from my driveway

Wheeler darn near won the classic in ‘19 in Knoxville, seems like he had an 18 lb bag of smallies one day which is not easily done I’m predicting silence from blaukat on the subject of wheeler slaying fish without livescope 😂

Mine is actually a TN river redfish, a delicacy at many restaurants that score somewhere in the 60s on their health dept rating

It could increase catch by 3000% and not effect population dynamics, you can still only kill 5 remember those guys that got caught with over 400 white bass at Cheatham dam? All bank fishing with artificial lures.

Pouring rain here for 2 days without stopping, some schools are cancelled

Not to poo poo the numbers but did anyone think it wouldn’t help catch more fish to have FFS? 😂 Todd castledine fishes lots of Texas tournaments and made an interesting point. A lot of the fish weighed during the BPT event were not keepers if it was a livewell tournament

Skunk is a formidable opponent, I had a customer back in the day where I caught 35 and I guarantee there are still more there. Caught 17 from my moms house 2 summers ago and she still has plenty, had to just convince her to coexist

He still throws that exact plug you did, quite a bit. As does his son Parker

Please don’t, he’s already posted pics on here of that mess many times

Nice!

@AlabamaSpothunter, monster bass!! that shad rap is the ott Defoe special
