Well, I have to start up an argument here.. HEE HEE...
now I think I did hear of a fish coming from old hickory lake, but I think it was disqualified because it was transported live because the guy wanted to release it, and Tenn law prohibits the transportation of live fish with out a permit...
now my understanding is that the world largest smallmouth bass was taken from Dale hallow.
There are two claims to the title, one from 1955 and one from 1969. Both fish are from dale hallow...
Here is a link to an article I read a couple years back... [url "http://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/fishing/columns/story?columnist=wilson_taylor&page=g_col_Wilson_smallie_record_turns-50"][#551a8b][size 5]ESPN - Taylor Wilson: Smallmouth world record celebrates 50 years[/size][/#551a8b][/url]
Oh, how I remembered this particular fish is... It has been my goal in life to hold the next world record small mouth bass title.... "every body has to have a goal in life" [cool]
