*** I do realize that there is a 12” minimum. The likely reason bass doesn’t have a 14”min like a lot of trails, is about 1/2 the field would zero otherwise. Allowing them to keep 12” fish is a “participation trophy” kinda.

***I also realize those aren’t exact weights, as they could actually be much less than what bass estimates.

It’s possible they inflate those weights so it doesn’t look totally and completely ridiculous that they allow those tiny fish in the live well and likely end up in the daily creel. Bass elite anglers might also hope the fish they catch each day don’t swim up into and get stuck in the Livewell drain tube.

Interesting leader board. Scoping ain't playing much from the looks of it

Kinda looks about how it should….a lot FFS guys just don’t really thrive fishing on true knowledge and past experiences. But…..we all know they will sack em up when the trail heads to different lakes.

Glad to see the Canadian [censored] below the 50 cut. Haha.

Yes, please move into this guys boat…what does bass have a 9”min. Thats a freaking 10 and 12oz fish in the live well. What a joke they don’t even put a minimum tournament standard for all lakes at 14”. That mo little fish y’all been flapping your gums about doesn’t even exist anywhere except in Bass. Damn things still have milk on their lips.

Wow you guys are harsh. Haven’t you guys ever actually fished? Sometimes you just dont catch them. Lighten up a little.

Gum flappers unite…bass is showing the world how it’s done. It’s clear the wheels are off at bass when this type of nonsense is happening at a supposed professional level. Soak it up 2usedfish…

They’re talking outta their [censored]. It’s ok. 35 degree cold front in Florida. Those fish won’t eat. These guys are MAKING them eat. It’s actually pretty impressive.
