Those boats aren't allowed on the water that he is fishing. Electric motors only.

I know at least two of those stories were true. I was helping him with a couple from LA. He had the guide trip for the people I was fishing with. His clients got on them right before lunch and they had like 54# with five fish. They had pictures and weights of those five fish for sure. I know he claimed about 7 or 8 days that year his clients caught 50 plus stringers.

I weighed in just over 33lbs this past March on Toledo. Biggest bag I've ever caught was 38lbs on Toledo. Had one day on Fork with no scale, but pretty sure we had over 40lbs that day.

Geez, Ken. You really should quit with the posts bashing that guide. You do it at every opportunity. It's unbecoming of a man. We all know who you're talking about and you're basically calling him a liar, which is a personal attack on the man's credibility.

35lbs in a tournament for me. Bassnbucks 2007 Rayburn sight fishing. 12lb big bass

Numerous 40lb stringers fun fishing.
Only 50lb stringers for 5 fish I've heard of on 14" lakes is Falcon and David Wharton on Rayburn. David was a heck of a good fisherman. Biggest I've seen in person was Mike Metcalf on Rayburn in an anglers choice. I think he had 42+

Obviously fork with the slot it's happened more often.

I guess it doesnt count but I have had multiple 50 plus days at Bell up to 55.
I have had several 4 giant fish days that had I gotten the 5th big fish then would have been in the low 60s.
Next best was 45 lb at Fork sight fishing-3 of those were over 10 (one of my luckier days-lol)!!!
One reason its so hard is that Im too pumped up after one to focus.
I dont know of any other verified ones though besides what you stated. I guess best 5 is tourney related- otherwise why not best 4 or best 7? I really just try to get one- thats more than hard enough!

Biggest for me was 43.22 best 5 in a tournament on a non-slot public lake. Had over 32 lbs 3-4 times in other events.

I've had a 27 lb day with smallmouth. Probably 3 or so days over 35 lbs with largemouth. I do not think I've ever cracked 40.

I sure everyone will have a opinion about whether we want to start defending the credibility of Lake Fork guides telling the truth about how big there fish were but I doubt many will agree that people tell the truth about the size of there ?????

We all have opinions on the credibility of the guides on fork and it usually comes down to who uses who. There been lots of opinions on here over the last 5 years that I have saw go after that one guide. I have defended him in the past myself. I wouldn't be to harsh on Ken he is a good dud.
