I have been blessed through the years to have several memorable day's on the water and today was near the top. Doug Markham and I set out for the lake early this morning to shoot a video for his site. To make what could be a very long story short we caught and released approx 70lbs of Largemouth with our best 5 weighing in at 37lbs with the big fish weighing 10lbs 12 ounces. Everything was caught on a Real Bait Company 3 wire Tennessee Rig, and swim baits rigged on VMC Smoochin Head Minnows www.vmchooks.com (http://www.vmchooks.com/) and 65lb test Sufix 832 Braid www.sufix.com (http://www.sufix.com/) . Doug shot several more pictures that I will get up when he sends them and we have the entire day on video that will be up and running within a week or so. Doug and I have had some great trips through the years together and this today was no exception. Wow!!! Rick McFerrin www.tennesseebassguides.com (http://www.tennesseebassguides.com/)

Thanks for the congrats....back in the 70's my father and I fished lake Kissimmee in Fla...Dad had a 14 plus which is still on my wall....and I had one that was over 12.......I always wished that I had had a mount done of her....still have the pics though...............this was my biggest Largemouth in Tennessee. We measured took plenty of pictures and released her-I will have a plastic mount done ...Rick
