I was told this used to be a place they farm raised catfish for chain restaurants, now they sell trophy bass fishing, odd

I can afford to fish it, but I'd choose not to spend $1500 to fish a little lake for a day. Ridiculous, IMO.

I don't get the "High fence Hater" mentality. Hunting, fishing, or anything within reason. Short of shooting a deer litterally in a 20 sq/ft pin or catching a 18 on bass out of a bath tub.

The haters that claim there is no "sport" extremely hypocritical.

Unless you are fishing out of a hand dug canoe, with a gut string line you wove fishing with a cane you hand cut you have no room to talk. Same thing with hunting. Don't criticize Someone shooting a 200" deer in a 6,000 acre game ranch unless you hunt horseback with a bow you made with your own hands and a flint knapped broad head.

"Hey that guy caught that DD out of Camelot bell is BS, anyone can do that where's the sport in that" then the next weekend he's using his 450$ rod that could feel a fish fart from 100 yards looking at his dual 16" Carbon's while his spotlock holds him in place so he doesn't even have to hold his boat in the wind fishing.

Same thing with deer hunters. "Where's the sport in hunting high fence". Yea well where's the sport in sitting in a blind, under a feeder, with a high powered rifle and scope.

I do both of these things btw, but I don't knock the high fence guys because we all do something that others may seem less sporty.
