Right Randy, I am just trying to put myself in their shoes. I am guessing
that it has to be how popular the B.A.S.S is in a specific region. Oh well, I am not going to kill myself over it, I just wish that they would recognize that this fishery is worth their time.

We have so many big watersheds here such as the Winnebago chain that can turn out 15lb 5 fish limits , Madison chain, which I have seen turn out 20lb limits.
