Was the big bass largemouth or smallmouth?

Tacoma, I don't know the answer to that. Maybe someone who was down there could fill us in. I was curious myself. What I posted above was just the press release from FLW Outdoors.

I heard it was largemouth. Wasn't much caught. 154 boats and only 55 weighed fish on the boater side. As for the co-angler if you had a fish you got a check, only 31 co-anglers weighed anything. As for the fly remember the slot limit that they have there, and I don't think there has been a tournament won with smallmouth since it was passed, oh of course just the smallmouth only events.
Go to flw outdoors and look at the bfl results. THEY STARTED this division WAY too early!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
