Its good to see BASS back in the area. 1991 was the last trip to Bull Shoals and few of tis group has seen it. The fishing will be good and we expect lots of 11-12 pound limits with those finding kickers notching their way up. It will be an exciting week to watch and grueling for those competitors. The lake is a lot better than it was when they were here last.Bull Shoals and Arkansas have a lot of history in bass fishing with everything from the first BASS event to the boat companies. There are rod companies, bait companies, graphite shaft builders and so much more. Including those first Bassmasters Classic boats by Rebel, made by Kenzie Craft. Then to add on that this is where Dee Thomas famed flipping as a technique in 1975. There is so much more history here and KVDs family spring vacationed on Bull Shoals visiting an old friend of ours as a youth. Virgil Ward, Harold , Spence P. and more frequented the area years ago.The Twin Lakes area was slowly sliding from bass fishing prominence. The area had retirement area fame in the Wall Street Journal, multiple #1 or #2 outdoor communities in Outdoor Life and Field and Stream publications. Though it was suffering on notoriety as a fishing destination for bass. Everyone visited here for the World Class trout fishery of the White River. And that certainly deserves recognition. Though Bull Shoals certainly deserves the same recognition recently given to Table Rock as it is a good fishery as well. February can be wicked!It is very nice to see BASS put Bull Shoals back in the schedule and we hope that the crowds show up from the surrounding areas to see the weigh in.Thank You Jerry Mc. and welcome back BASS!Rick PierceLast edited by Bass Cat Boats on April 19th, 2012, 10:42 pm, edited 1 time in total.
