Fish Chris from ncbf pointed me over to recordbass.com where they have a year long contest for the 10 largest bass caught in the US. Well I'll be darned if my 15-12 wouldn't be in 4th place (and worth a cool $1000) right now had I known about it and shelled out the 15 bucks to join. Arrrrrrr Well needless to say I shelled out the 15 bucks tonight and maybe I'll get lucky and lightning will strike twice !
