Well I am 52 been bass fishin since I was 16, not to many soft baits back then. Tied our own jigs for a long time, never knew what a rubber jig looked like. Anyway just a few years back I caught a 6 and a 5 lber within 15 minutes of each other while fishing a tourney I was so proud and shook I sit in the drivers seat of the boat for 90 minutes before gettin back up to fish. And still today if my partner or myself gets a big fish we go thru the gongatulation thing. I believe it is well deserved. I hope that I never lose the excitement of catching or seeing my partner catch that big one. High Five to all that catch's a trophy or 5 lber or better in this state. Especially Herrington Lake.
