yea. thats smart. must fish in same boat. agreed. the whole banning bama rig is silly to me though. some people are just so afraid of change its pathetic. afraid to get beat by new techniques. the science is showing that plastic worms and crankbaits are probably doing more damage than a bama rig...and the fishes mortatility should be the most important. also, the tournament format of live weigh in fish and then release is so awesome. makes it more fun for the fan....makes it better for the fish. when you release a bass instantly opposed to culling and keeping it in and hauling it all the weigh in you are substantially increasing the fishes chances of survival. im basing this conclusion on common sense. I have no science behind it :)
