Then that's even worse...lol. Doesn't matter to me, I don't keep LMB. I was just stating that it sounds like he could have got popped for his stringer.
On a side note, I'll be fishing LP this Saturday. I need to get familiar with that lake since it's in my backyard now....I think I'll take my baby girl (5) and wife out with me. I could set up a drop shot for her or even drag a worm a few feet deep with a bobber for her. As for me, maybe I can hook into one of these lunkers everyone keeps talking about.
The lunkers are hard to convince to bite but there are many 4 to 5 pounders that are willing. Drop shot works great on fish up to 3lbs (in my experiance). For bigger fish I would throw big baits on a Texas rig...senkos and craws....good luck out there...I will be there Sunday.
