Come to Sugar Lake during March and it 's going to happen. 

Awesome... The only thing that is missing are some pics!!!!!!!1

No evidence was provided.  That's one heck of a story and plenty of names are mentioned.  I guess they could corroborate.

It happened.

I figured it probably did since there was something like that written about it but there have got to be pics or videos or something! What serious big bass fisherman doesn't take a camera?

the same kind that "forgot" their scale, and now a 3 pounder is a 7 pounder.  Even if you don't have a camera, how many of todays cell phones can't take pictures???? lol

Pictures were taken, where are they?

TackleTour did an interview with this guy:

That's just crazy. I just wish there were pictures.

wait, is this guy a member of the forum?

What serious big bass fisherman doesn't take a camera?

I don 't.

I 'm not supersttious or anything like that but I 've found a trend, when I take the camera I don 't catch anything worth taking a picture of, when I don 't take the camera is when I catch something worth taking a picture but I got no camera. so, the camera satays at home.

I just don't take one 

Unless someone else is with me and is the photo-taking type. I generally won't take a picture of a fish if it is under 6. So I can understand it, maybe they don't take pics unless it is over 10.

Yep, that's why you haven't seen all the pics of the 10lb PA bass that I catch each year.

This one time I caught 32 8lb fish in one day.  I owe it all to the fact that I didnt have a camera to verify it.  It was AWESOME.  You should have been there...

:

It happened. Matt is a great guy and a hell of a fisherman

Oh well, you want proof ? one of those extra rare ocassions I caught something interesting and had a camera, no I didn 't take the picture at the lake, I took it at home before moving the fish to a pond. 23" L x 22" girth. 9.86 lbs at the butcher 's scales.

Nice fish.

How much did the "manny pack" weigh?

It's a satchel.

FYI by saying....

Awesome... The only thing that is missing are some pics!!!!!!!1

I wasnnt implying that it didnnt happen or that they are liars or anything like that i was just stating that i would love to see the pictures. Bass around here dont get bigger that 5-6lbs. So a story like that is amazing to me. Thats all

Nice fish.

How much did the "manny pack" weigh?

Got no idea  :-/, I had this old brick size Motorola cell phone and that was the only place where I could carry it along with the bunch of key sets I usually carry ( car keys, house keys, mom 's house keys, warehouse keys, garage keys ) so .... I suppose almost as heavy as the bass I 'm holding.  ;D

So which big bass hunter doesn 't carry a camera ?  I don 't, I 'm not the pic of everything kinda guy, that kind of electronics don 't tickle my fancy, same applies to cel phones n 'stuff like that. How you think I got the camera ? well I found this combo at Costco some years ago: PC ( the one I 'm typing this from ), scanner/copier and digital camera for ( if I remember right ) for around 1,300 dollars. Don 't tell me to blow the same amount of money in tackle cuz man, I do it all the time but for a good camera, pretty cell phone or something like that ---> no way Jos é.

but lots of these guys are sponsored dudes who go out looking for just a couple bites a day. And the narrative stated that he met up with several other guys on the lake at the end of the big-fish-bonanza. Someone must have had a camera.

BTW, you don't need a good camera to take an acceptable picture. It's also getting pretty difficult to even find a cell phone without a camera phone. You could spend very little money on either one that is capable of taking decent pictures.
