Oooohhh.... I LIKE that quote! Sort of sums up my feelings on some guys....

Anyway, I love hearing the old stories. A guy I fish with has told me a story a bunch of times of a 60"+ bass he took at Ballston years ago. Every time I hear the story, I get all fired up to fish. He has 7 or 8 50's to his name, plus countless 40's. I have learned a lot of how/where to fish from this guy. Any time I can sit back and listen to what some of the old timers have to say, I pay close attention! As has been said, they may not be there every night, but if you can figure out why and when certain spots consistantly spit out big girls you can up your odds today.
