I once asked my wife why she married me. She replied that she married me because I could always make her laugh. I said that I thought it was because I was great at sex. She said "after all these years you are still hilarious".

I think every man thinks their wives married them for the great sex...

Careful with those Deliverance boys. Always face them and if you drop something be sure to kick it far away before bending over to pick it up. Don't want you squealing like a pig (Ned Beatty).

I know you're right... junior, either he is an idiot or plays the part very well... never talks and is always grinning when you talk to him or ask him a question (no he's not autistic I wouldn't make fun of something like that) Grand pa though... I'd say he's a crafty old coot

Are the live wells checked before the tournament starts? Could their fish be caught earlier and tied off to pick up later? Some old timers may remember a tournament fisherman who blocked a section with chicken wire and stocked with fish. He then returned there during the tournament and got his fish.

In the beginning there was a live well check but its the same guys every time so they don't check any more. No the cage thing would be to obvious and were fishing the river which gets pretty swift since we are close to the dam. Fish on a stringer could be easily done... I personally think they are baiting the area. I mean how hard is it to tie a chicken to a heavy rock or something like that. I know it sounds like I'm accusing them of cheating... I don't want to to be honest... That is why I'm asking what are the odds of placing every time and winning at least 50% of the time. No one in the group is that consistent, just them.

My neighbor worked at Piedmont gas. They had a monthly bass tournament and my neighbor did not have a boat. I had a boat so I could go with his entry. There was a brother and sister team who fished out of about a 12' Jon boat with about a 10 hp motor. Most had big bass rigs. I can't recall the brother sister team ever losing. I do think they were just good at fishing.

Its very well possible.. I'm sure they have fished the area all their lives and probably know the river better then I know my way around the country. I did find a interesting article yesterday describing proven catfish bait and I'm telling you there it covered all types of bait and several of them came with a warning due to the gut wrenching pungent smell.



I do know most of the guys use skipjack pieces, shad guts and garlic salt flavored chicken liver.... however junior and gramps are tight lipped about anything and everything.



Oh well it is what it is... At least I can say I've caught a lake Sturgeon... I don't think they ever have
