Fish returning to where they live

That's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. I guess it made it even better to catch a 7 pounder back to back years. That's not a easy task in Kentucky.

Last year she was a beautiful specimen and this year she had a big sore on her head and didnt look as good

Probably banged her head trying to make the long journey back home

Seriously, I have heard that before also but it is interesting to hear about an actual case of it happening.

No doubt in my mind they go home....I have some of them named.

I noticed that too, I guess when you hear the name Dale Hollow you think smallie.

I'm not a fan of hauling a fish around in a livewell unless you're going to feed people with it but i'm glad it survived the ordeal.

Great job Steven on the pig largehead. I to have always felt they go home and this just lays more weight to my thinking...

Back in the 80's on Barkley I caught two 5 pounders off of a brushpile in ten minutes. I did it again the next year but I just figured it was a good spot and that attracted that size bass. Maybe it was the same two?
