I know for certain there is a bigger bertha exactly where i caught my ~5+lb'er last year because i hooked her as well.
I stuck her a week after catching my personal best, and in the exact same spot. When i set the hook, it was like setting it in a stump. In fact, thats exactly what i though at first. I popped the line once after setting the hook and thought dang, im stuck again, then all of a sudden the line took off. I yanked back again and fought her for maybe 2 seconds before bertha spit it out, leaving me surprised and empty handed. I wont forget that one for a long time, and I have a photo album spot waiting just for her. Hopefully she's looking to dance again this year, and if so, i'll be there with the music

Some interesting stories there C7, I recall one that broke my off in the lillie pads last year, would like to have seen that one.
As well as a dozens of Steelhead that broke me off... But that's a whole different ball game!
Hopefully over the next month we can get some more participants from the North.

Tourny Question
Since there are so few smallmouth fishermen would it be ok if I grouped them all together ..Small mouth only..right now I only have 3 smallmouth fishermen when I include mr. Hutton

REMEMBER ..anyone who beat Buckhunter ...smallmouth or large will get a 20.00 bill from me.
