No trout, low water levels and bad management = the demise of a once legendary trophy bass fishery. Yes you can catch a 5lber there but the "Jumbos" are long long gone...

I will back Butch on this one. I who fish with Butch and am a very close friend knows for a fact that Butch pays for all his line and equipment full price!.. Except of course Deps who he is part of the Team.

The new 175 is a great bait and swims very consistent. I have three and can't fish em enough. I have been fishing the original 250s for some years now thanks to Butch and i am very partial to the original mold but let me tell you, the new injected bait is hard to put down. And like Butch recommends and with our experience with the new 175s. 15lb test is your friend when it comes to this bait. It really lights up with lighter line and i would not hesitate to purchase this bait. This bait is built better..through and through

20lb cxx works great for me. Always remember to adjust your rod to your line,..softer rod for braid and for me using mono i like to use my ldc XX custom. My 8in wood punker reacts well to that combo.

Sorry to the guys who were wanting to see Butch at the show. He will not be there. His back is out, he is out for the count. He can't move, he has been that way for a couple days now. I went up to see him yesterday and to take his boat out and i didnt see him just his wife. He was so bad yesterday he couldn't get out of bed to come out and say hi. He is truly sorry for not making the show. Rob A

That's a thick one!..Pushing 13 for sure!!

Your the man BW...hope your stroking em!

Merry Christmas "don father"

And i know it don't count but i lost the biggest bass of my life at the boat last year,..a solid 17lber. The bait catches giants if you know how to use it. My lates was a 11.5 northern a couple of weeks ago. Super stoked on that beauty. P.S. I wont let striper near that bait
