RE: Dale Hollow 6/11-6/18
6 1/2 is an awful nice Smallmouth, Congrats. I caught 2 over 6 this past winter at Dale and would trade my wife of 8 years for one over 7. I believe I had one over 7 on Feb of 2004, but she LDR'd (Long Distance Released after straightening the hook out on my jig) on me after a really good fight. My best friend was in the boat with me and was sure she was an easy 7, hint I say in his words "maybe 8". After seeing the 2 I caught this past winter, I also believe she was an "easy 7 maybe an 8". Still wake up in cold sweats dreaming of that day and seeing her come to the top just out of net range for the last time before the bulldog run to the depths again. Hell where's my boat, I going to Dale right now to find her again.
