Dear Santa,

Please make Gruber go away to some other website.

Thank you, that is all.

How is it challenging to catch big bass on frogs In pads in summer? Why so critical? Everyone has preferences! More power to ya!

Best fisherman is a senseless topic. That is purely subjective.

https://youtu.be/-B8kv_HNhxE You think I’m crazy, so be it, but a lot of anglers are dumping their heavy tackle for light!

I get the most joy from a fishing trip when I catch BIG fish. I enjoy every trip on the water. However, MY greatest joy fishing is feeling a BIG 'UN pulling like heck and my heart pumping, watching that BIG 'UN jump and shake it's head, the thrill of getting it in the boat, getting home and my wife asks how It went and getting to show her a picture of a big ol bucket mouth. I don't get that rush from little fish.

My buddy I fish with sometimes likes to say "If I catch another dink I'm gonna take a hammer and beat it's guts out" We get good laugh.

If LM bass never got over 3# I'd be fishing for strippers every trip. My biggest LM is a handful of 8+ over 60 years. I want to catch a DD. I don't get excited about 15 little fish.

Whatever blows your skirt up.



You'll go broke fishing for strippers. Stick with the bass...

His family depended on him being the best every day during the Great Depression. Never owned a boat longer than 12 feet, or a motor over 4 hp.

Gruber probably used pennies, nickels, and dimes.
