For me, it would be two old timers. Ohter Hamilton 82-yo, and the long since past Mr. Taylor, he owned Taylors Lil Big Horn marina and bait shop on Lake Winnsboro--- taught me how to back then. They shared their knowledge of the lake and tackle with our eager young minds (my brother and me) and we ate it up like candy. I recall that was around the late 60s early 70s time frame, not a lot of high tech stuff back then. They seemed to have a lot of instinct and common sense with worms and stick baits, we couldnt believe how many fish theyd catchBut they did. We owe a lot to those two men, they helped shape my brother an me into what we are today. That ain't say'n a lot, but they tried. LOL

I've only been doing this Bass fishing for about 4 years (I'm 62) and 98% has been at Fork, so my views are limited. But from the people I know I think Tom Redington is pretty darn good. His knowledge and insight is obvious if you read his reports. He loves what he does, and respects the sport. He's a true amBASSador to fishing. And he's brought in a bigun or two,.. JIMSR

Thats some funny $&%T right there... ...He lives down the road from me and that pontoon boats he fishes out of takes up half the lake, so he certainly has the water covered! He's a good guy and I like that lake of his!

OK it would be Chuck Turner in Emory,there's only one problem.He has a Real Job, If your ever in Emory,check out Service Marine.In his office he has so many plack's from tournaments there's hardly any room left,and he still keeps them coming. Hands down he is the most consistant winner on Lake Fork which is a slot lake and thats not a easy task. When it comes to electronic's and fixin boats,he's a Wizard! This is what he looks like in the mornings
