Rick was the wheeler of the 80 and early 90s once the boats and sonars started improving he started getting dangerous. I could only imagine what a young Rick clunn could be like today. Good video to watch
Ok after watching for 10 minutes they fight the fish way longer then fisherman today...all that back and forth with a 2.5 pound bass.....today pros boat flip 5+ pounders in a blink of an eye
Tom Fenger You obviously have never caught a 2.5lb Coosa river spotted bass, they fight so hard if you try to lift them fresh they will turn head and break off or pull through their own lips. That's why biologist made them a sub species of spotted bass.
Yes those coosa river spots are mean a 3lb fish feels like a 8lb fish they live in the current of the coosa all there lives they are strong ive had them snap 14 lb line like sewing thread before
No livescope no sonars, the way it should be.
Awesome this was when bass fishing was great now days all about electronics and sponsors 🙁
