Meat Hunters

I had to start this off just that way…a fishing buddy called me today and after I had been talking to him I explained I was out to see how this Alabama Rig Works in the water and just what it look like coming through the water. What scared me the most was if I were a Bass I could not turn down a meal bunch up like this. This lure is something.
Now comes in the Meat Hunters, last year the guys next to us were coming back to the cabin three or four times a day with three ice chest full of BASS. My buddy and I figured after the three or four days that they were at Pickwick they might have taken two hundred or more BASS. Now with this Alabama Rig with about 200 hundred boats with two anglers in the boat the amount of Bass taken from a place like Pickwick Lake would have a toll even on a lake/river of that size.
What do we do to ensure that anglers put back the bass so we can catch some fish next trip. I see anglers harvest more than they could ever eat in a giving year. Maybe signing in and make the PROMISE NOT TO KEEP MORE BASS THAN YOU CAN EAT IN A WEEK. All Pro anglers can only have one rod and one lure in the water at a time for The classic coming up later this month. I am not saying make it a law we can not fish the Alabama Rig even I would like to see what it would be like to have about five three pounders giving me a fight that I will not forget.
IT WILL BE SOMETHING FOR ALL US ANGLERS TO KEEP A CLOSE WATCH..AND THAT INCLUDES THE GUY IN THE BACK OF YOUR BOAT. Think Conservation.
