TESTIMONIES |
|
|
|
"This one measured 31" long and had a girth of 19 1/2", weighing 17.10 on an X-Tools scale. I probably should have taken it into the marina and had them weigh it but I prefer to release the fish where it was caught. I was using a Zara Spook re-rigged with VMC 5580 INLINE Treble hooks."
|
"The bigger of the two went 10.4 and the smaller was a 6.8. They were caught on back to back days shaking 8" worms Texas rigged 2/0 8313-TR Cone Cut Worm Hooks. All three fish came from Lake Casitas. I started using the VMC worm hooks because of too many close calls with other manufacturer's hooks opening up on me."
|
"This one weighed 11.5 and was caught on an 8" 22nd Century Triple Trout that comes already rigged with VMC 3/0 9625 trebles."

| TESTIMONIES |
"The estimated weight of this fish was 9.8 lbs by the game warden of Lake Helen, a rather small lake (one of about a million in Mississippi) on the Meridian Naval Air Station. I did not have a true scale w/ me because I did not expect to catch a bass this size. I was told the former record was 9.6 lbs and this was accepted as the new record. I was also in a hurry to keep the fish healthy and release the fish to return to it's nest. I was using a VMC 3/0 V7316 with a 7" Texas rigged black and silver ribbon tail worm." |
