 Too many tournaments.   No one will EVER convince me that carrying bass around all day in a livewell isn't detrimental.   

Ever heard of the st Lawrence river?

Ehhh, maybe not, but I do know a Curtis who sits on a 5 gallon bucket with a heater going, straw hat and a speaker who has a 100% kill rate of whatever animal that happens to tug the line. So all things considered…

Curtis sitting on his bucket eating everything he catches is quite a bit different than 240 anglers, in 120 boats with millions worth of equipment.
