I had the same experience with a good day during a KGKL. Went in at the end of the first hour with 3 in the livewell; each just ounces under 9 lbs.. Weighed in one at the end of the hour and one at the beginning of the second hour. It was drizzling rain and the Spook was working. Ran back and forth all day up the Colo. River. I weighed in one over 8 lbs. every hour and did not get a check. It took a fish over 9 lbs. each hour to get one. I was too busy to take pictures.

At the last bass champs that was there we had a 10 in the well and not much to go with it. They trailered cause they were going out of concho but water levels had made it hard to get in and out. I knew we didn't have enough to check. When we came in to the ramp at elm I yelled at the boats around me if anyone could beat a 10. Bout 6-7 guys said yes so we ditched her in front of everyone rather than risk her not making the ride for no reason. When that place was on it was something else. Jerry makes a great burger but people weren't driving all the way to the middle of no where for the burgers lol.

If I caught 13 ten pounders in a hour and did not have a camera I would be drawing pictures of them.

I remember the day Chance caught those big fish, he came in telling me about it and I called BS on it but when a game warden witnessed it and backs him up and says it`s true I believe it. I also remember when Jeff caught the big double, I saw pics of that. Chance and Jeff catch a lot of big fish on Ivie and know the lake extremely well. When the lake was pumping out the big fish Jeff kept count of the ten pound and over he caught on year, I don`t remember the exact number but it was over 30.

21xs Elite do you have pics of your ten 10lbers in 1 hour? I know if I did that I would have proof. Not to burst ou bubble but having cameras all over the place is a relatively new deal, for years we didn't have one in boat. Only one now is on phone. Now as to ivie over the years there have been all kinds of big fish caught. I know a guy at caught a 10.5 and a 12 on back to back casts. He called me and I met him with scale on lake as he didn't have one. I cant speak to the validity of 13 10s in an hour, 21xs is a real good stick who knows that lake as good as anyone and I suspect he isn't FOS. They group up on that lake pretty good and in its prime lots of stuff similar happened out there. But again we weren't all strapped up with Chesties or whatever the hell you call it. He said it was last summer so I'm pretty sure he would've had a camera phone.

This is what it looks like taking a fish over 12 to tournament scales when your actually fishing in.

I've caught (13) 5 and 6 #'rs in one little spot one after another before so I would say it's definitely possible to do the same with 10's. I'm sure he was throwing them back in the water after each catch .... if he had a camera with him we would say that's the same fish in 13 different photo's.

Nice fish man! But you one of the pics is from 2012 & the other is from who knows when so I still think the 10 over 10 is a fish tale & I think most people would agree.

Man I fish all the time and all over the place and have a place on fork and have been fishing the lake from the start. I have caught many 7,8 pound fish but only 2 over 10 pounds . I would find it hard to believe 13 over 10 in a lifetime let alone a hour. And to have a camera and not take any pictures is like the Russia deal. I won't call it a lie but I would have to call it a tall tail. You posted a picture of a big fish why did you take a picture of that fish . You could have had 16 over 10 if you wouldn't have taken the time.

Nope, don't have time when you and the wife are catching them every cast and your hands are bleeding, arms start to hurt after three hours but it all went away when we weighed in 30lbs on a lake we never been too before!

That fish was special, that boat was delivered that day, we broke it in and the fist cast made out of that boat was 13.12 in mid July.

This pic is last summer media caught out the back of my boat 12.98 the pic you say no telling when was summer before last. I posted the GW name and where he is located and would be happy to tell you all about it. I don't know why he would walk in to elm creek marina and tell an all out lie? The only time this year I really got excited was when I caught a smallie that weighed 5.4, those don't grow on every tree here.
