Not quite right, Story goes something like, AP, ( Astrological Press), Dallas Morning Sun Times Harold News Dispatch,
"Man from Waco Texas hooks record Bass on fly Rod. Unable to "Lip" the brut, Jimmy D drug the fish to the docks where he used his "Warn" 32 volt Texas Boat Winch to haul the fish onto his custom 48' bass boat trailer. While attempting to bring the fish out of the water the presure exerted by the boat rails of the trailer caused the "Record Largemouth" to expel some of it's stomach contents. Some of the "Contents" included a Coleman 3 burner camp stove, 6 "Plano" tournament series tackle boxes, 4 "Igloo" 64 quart ice chests and a front fender from a 1932 Desoto with a "Mint" Zippo lighter wedged in the mounting bracket. Mr. Moore said that the rest of the stuff was fine but the "Zippo" should bring a good price at the annual "Bass Story and Hog Calling" contest held at the "Chest Deep" club in Austin, ( an "Exclusive" by Membership only club of "Capitol BS Preparations). Mr. Moore reported that he would be back on the 80 Acre lake in the morning trying to recover his trailer and custom 1978 Kenworth, (Used to haul the "Small" bass boat), which the "Champion" bass drug into the water from the boat dock."
Hope this clears up a few things for you folks...;-) Jimi
If at first you don't succeed, maybe you shouldn't try sky diving!
