Male bass rarely (never) grow to be over 5 lbs.

It sounds like management has their eye on you...in a very good way. Move on with them and move up!

Bull Shoals is 30" above full pool. The Tennessee River reservoirs are full and the flood gates are open. Regionally we received 6"-18" of rain last week. No more rain expected until Saturday. My flowers are happy!

My Best Year was putting twelve guys on their Personal Best.

Maybe there was some slight variance in the Senkos you were using, but the colors themselves are not softer or harder.

4/0 weighted hook. Pick your favorite color, I like green pumpkin. Tick the bottom, but don't drag the bait.

I fish with guys I like.

I fish the Menace a lot, but not as a traditional trailer. I like it on a swim jig and Texas rigged, but always moving.

"Recognized" by the IGFA or not, Dotti is still the largest bass EVER caught. Also, the "2 oz rule" is silly. If I catch a 12 lb smallmouth it will be the World Record whether IGFA recognizes it or not.
