When you consider just how many waters hold largemouths compared to those that hold stripers, it's easy to see why stripers take a back seat.

Plus when you have very warm, consistantly warm temps, the warm weather and water will drive the stripers to deeper water, while largemouths are active in shallower water making them easier to target.
(not easier to catch, mind you, just easier to go after)

I can only imagine the quality of the bass down there, since they do grow faster and larger in warmer climates.

We dream of getting a 5-10 lb. largemouth up here, where they dream of getting a 10-15 lb. bass down there.

I am a legend in my own mind!

thats the truth. The winning sack at the weigh in I attended - 5 fish limit, was 30lb......with only 4 FISH!
One 11lb, one 8lb and one 6 and one 5....wtf!

making s-b.com a kinder, gentler place for all
