I agree with the golf glove comment. That is a friend of ours that caught a ton of bass (75-100)in a couple of evenings. Apparently, his thumb was raw.
My 6 yr old son always kisses, like Jimmy Houston, the bass before he releases them. Therefore, my wife can always tell how good the fishing has been by the smell of fish on his breath and the lack of skin on my thumb!

Man I am so Fed up with these Feeders its rediculous!!! It is more than Obvious that these things were NOT designed by degreed engineers!!
I am in the process of taking a deer Hopper and designing and making my own feeder... I have no experience with feeders. In fact the only feeders I've ever actually watched work were at the Lusk Lodge 2. BTW, he feeds LMB with some huge pellets. It is absolutely amazing to watch LMB hammer those pellets. They jump completely out of the water when hitting a pellet just like is was live prey. Do all feeders drop feed onto a spinning plate to fling the feed? Perhaps designing a completely different approach. I'll bet Theo could design one and Dwight could build it.

Great looking fish. I like the way y'all held them. Did you release?
Just do it...

Absolutely! We release all of the big broods. Depending on the time of year and/or situation, we may release them into a different pond. Propagation is a lot cheaper than buying!
We try to control our genetics. Therefore, we work to keep the same genetic mix (florida:northern) in certain ponds.
