Any scientific evidences or just speculation? Take off that confederate flag t-shirt and just enjoy it for what it is.
You beat me to it.. well said.. It's like he thinks it's some simple task. it takes a lot more than money to have a fishery that will support a record bass.

If your assesment of the subject matter were correct anyone with the money and the know how could manipulate any species of critter in order to "build" them a NEW WORLD RECORD. I can see it now a pond sanitized and climate controlled and stocked with only record class bass offspring and fed as many trout and other highly nutritious food sources as they can handle and within a few years some guy says he tossed a bait into the water and what do you know a 30 pound bass and a NEW WORLD RECORD.

If this is your idea of a fair and level playing field then that is your right but don't try to demonize myself or others for standing up for what we feel is right.

The only FOOLS in American sportfishing will be the ones who bow down and enbrace this NEW WORLD RECORD.

I'm reading all your words. No one is demonizing you but yourself. I'm not the only one seeing the words you are typing as a ridiculous excuse. You are clearly being a poor sport.
