I have always loved the guy. He was a MONSTER in the world of catching his beloved Ole Brown fish. He could catch them when nobody else could.

He is partially responsible for Bass Pro Shop as well. Many years ago in a tourney on Lake O in Florida, Johnny Morris and his partner whom was driving the boat had a major wreck. Morris was unconscous and face down in the water with PFD on but was near death. Billy and his partner found them just after the crash, Billy snatch them from the water and the rest is history.

I have been told Westmoreland caught well over a hundred Smallmouth in his life over 7lb.....Can you even imagine that....****
