TV "PUT THE FISH BACK IN THE WATER!!!"

Agreed.  There are a lot of fish killers on TV.  I like the show but that dude on In Fisherman holds fish out of water forever.

He posted a picture with a dam in the background...either he's not too smart, or very clever and is trying to throw people off. Wonder how many boats are going to that ramp today?

wouldn't much matter, he already caught it.Nice fish

Observations:

That's not Table Rock.

There's some sort of waterfall in the background of post #1.

The boat looks like a river jon.  Square front.

Pic #2 kinda looks photoshopped with a false background.

I'm not disputing anything...  it's a great fish.  Would like to know more details.

Phil, thanks for posting that article about the state parks, brings back a lot of memories as I have a old friend of mine that lives down there & we hunted that Pigman Ranch for years where they are planning on that Eleven Point River State Park. The total size of that ranch was 18000 acres before Reed Pigman sold it & real estate company got it and sold off lots. Larry Latham & his late father ran that ranch for quite a few years & we had some great times down there. Larry's father passed away years ago & Larry lives just outside of Alton MO. Was able to see him a few years ago and thank him for all the times we had.

Sorry... I wrongly assumed (bad thing) since it was posted on the TR forum it might have been a TR fish.  Shouldn't have known to keep my opinions out of bass country

Curious, anyone know Table Rock record spot? Where? Year? Bait?

Yup, i've also yelled at the tv for Al Linder to put a Smallmouth back in the water while he goes on and on for 5 minutes about how "dat smallie pounded dat grub". WTH, just throw the bass back in the water already.

I am not going to challenge about the bass but the dam in  the background sure does not look healthy. If that thing is a waterfall and not a dischage outlet ( does not look like a discharge outlet) I do not think i would even want to be fishing in that spot. I would think the dam is leaking and therefore being undermined. I really think it looks like something frozen. There is no ripple in the water.  There should be. There is also more runs down from there. Could be nothing other than a snow dusting.
