Don't feel bad Gam. Nobody catches GSF as large as DIED's. I've caught a 10 to 11 inch GSF at my place but nothing like DIED has. DIED is rapidly becoming the the "Condello" of GSF. In fact I think there is some untold mentoring relationship between the two. Although I don't have any concrete proof I believe that the Bruce's ranch is in actuality a clandestine operation using the name "Condello Institute for the Creation of Ludicrously Proportioned Blue Gills." I now believe that Bruce and DIED are in collaboration and are developing the El Dorado Laboratory for the Development of Ginormous Green Sunfish. I further believe that DIED has enlisted the celebrity support of both Santa Claus and Tom Cruise. In addition I believe that both Bruce and Dave are using psychological warfare tactics in their operations. First a photo appears on the internet showing Bruce suspending his BG over a cutting board and now DIED's photo which clearly reveals him threatening his sunfish with a knife. I fear that in the quest for the ultimate sunfish many horrific things are happening in the name of science. We already know that DIED is dabbling in the black art of Water Witching, who know what depths he has sunk to in the pursuit of a huge green sunfish....
