Lol-good answer!

I wonder though, Have we all written off the true source that could produce a 17 plus again?
I had written her off, but now I think I may have been wrong.
Any other place besides Fork produce a 17plus in Texas-public/private?——no.
Maybe, even with all the time that has passed and all the change that has occurred, Fork hides somewhere, somehow, a record bass.

Well lets see. On another post you stated Rackley worked with LFT in their early days. Just how old was he in their early days. Lmao

Im not a bioligist but i would think as animals just like humans as they get older they are more worried with survival than mating so at a certain age their reproduction diminishes greatly and with todays fishing pressure maybe why we will never see a 17+fish again ever.

How old is Justin Rackley again, since you seem to know that kinda info?

EDIT:
This isnt even the video im talking about....but id say that qualifies as working with them. im sure youll nitpick something since im always wrong. Let me know if you want to bet some baits and ill spend the time digging for the video....might take me a while cuz it was a basic Vlog post years ago, even before googan baits where he went to lake fork tackle and mentioned working with them in his younger days.

I’m just thinking,- If you say, I want to catch a 17 plus lb bass in Texas or die trying, where would you go?
Where would you go?
WHERE would you go?
I know where I would go- history tells me exactly where to go.

Yea, I wouldnt expect you to accept any facts that go against your opinion/beliefs....and thats why im wrong so often in your eyes. I prefer actual facts to alternative facts...but hey, theres that nit picking I knew would come. Im sorry that my definition of "early days" isnt up to snuff for you. Ill work on that.

I know it doesnt matter since im wrong and dont know what qualifies as "early days" but he literally said he lived in the Lake Fork Tackle store at one point....not sure how much closer you can get than that....but again it doesnt really matter since you dont watch youtube vids but will google rackleys birth year, and I have no idea what "early days" means, at least in the correct sense 🤷‍♂️

Im just drinking beers....so feel free to keep pointing out how im wrong. I love bringing facts to an alternative facts/omitted facts discussion...fun times.

Dude, you are the one ignoring facts. He was probably in kindergarten when LFT was in its early days as you put it. I never said he didn't have anything to do with them.

Good choice no doubt.
I have been there as much as anybody from 2012-now.
I have fished many public lakes as well, targeting only dd bass.
To me, I stand by my answer-Fork.
However, a friend of mine who has caught so many giant bass that it is ridiculous says to never get married to one lake. I agree.
Who really knows though?
That’s the fun part.
