In a similar vein, I wonder about regular worms vs finesse worms. Do you think that some days fish look at a regular worm and think, “That looks tempting but I just ate a whole blue Gill.  I think I better pas…oh wait, is that a finesse worm?  Well I guess one little bite won’t hurt!”

That's almost exactly what happened here, except it was bass on the menu instead of bluegill  for this 9+ pounder that ended up weighing 10.33 with the contents of her happy meal visible and she just had to top it off with a 4.5" Roboworm.

I try to hide the oversized forearm as it dwarfs the one on my right arm and I get a lot of sideways glances from guys that don't fish.

In a state where the record bass weighs 10 lbs 14 ounces, that probably stings a little.

Bass anglers get a lot of crap in the Midwest by the walleye crowd.  I don't really disagree, the difference in level of difficulty of catching is significant between the two species.
