Would the state record be less a record if it was caught on a bluegill? The long standing record now was caught on a minnow over 30 years ago.

Milleken is actually the real deal. Excited to see how he handles the opens this year.

Yep that fish was one big crappie away from flirting with the record. I'd take the field. More and more guys are becoming competent with FFS. It's possible any day now.

Give me the field also. A fish that big is a for real unicorn and luck will have a lot more to do with it than skill regardless of what they use. Look at the current record holder for the past THIRTY ONE years. Crappy (double entendre intended) fisherman.

The field. With so many bass fisherman in Texas, if a state record is roaming around somewhere, the chance of a specific individual locating and catching it is tiny.

I'll take the part of the field that has watched the interview video.

Field although after watching the Bilge with Jones he is the real deal and has something figured out that most dont. I also add that after all the flack he gets he might not even turn it in, maybe show it and release but not turn in because of the controversy.

St Clair was a fluke, guys out there fishing for the record or even stumbling onto it have not done it in this long, the record fish wont eat a lure is my bet rather a big crappie of shad as its meal for the month and then go back into hiding. I personally feel there are a bunch over the record out there that will die of old age. Think of the biggest deer killed every year on big spreads that were never caught on game cams. They are there ,just smarter than us.
