DEAD bass was up after Tourney on KY Lake.

Bass fishing went off the rails in two key areas: one being the idea that eating your catch is some how a bad idea. Second, the tournaments/money/sponsors have taken it into a business model.

It's deviated so far from the bass fishing of yesterday and these are key reasons why I personally don't understand the logic behind it. I don't know which is more frustrating, the whole mentality of catch/release/don't eat or the big money tournaments that attract fantastic butt holes. Color me confused on bass fishing in general, but being a conservation minded person, I routinely save them when gut hooked by simply cutting the hook off instead of pulling their guts out.

I think you would be hard pressed to find a tournament angler who isn't conservation minded, lets not play holier than tho!

[QUOTE=GeoFisher;547582]Guys.....this stuff is unreal......simply UNREAL. I've been saying for years that tourneys in this type of weather should be banned.....period.

I had a entire book written about this subject but decided to delete it. What George Said is enough. I agree with him 100% on this subject.

See, we CAN agree in a few things.
