i fish busch quite often. i work on new technics, also there isnt much else close to st. louis. lake 33 and 35 are the best bets for big fish except if you catch and release.
To spinhead no disrespect but bass taste great it is all about control and balance. Fishing and hunting was made for thining the herd so that they dont over populate. Thats why there are seasons for certaint species. You are right about busch being over fished by people keeping them.
