Hey guys, I just finished reading Doug Hannon's book "Big Bass Magic". He says many things that go against conventional wisdom of bass fishing, mainly regarding big fish. I will reveal these after the survey is over. I would like to ask you guys a few questions about your PB Largemouth to help me compile data to prove or disprove Hannon's statements. Please copy and paste the questions with your answers.

 

How deep was the fish caught?

Did the lure contain rattles or have hinges?

Was the lure a natural color (brown, green) or was it an unnatural color (chartreuse, orange)?

If possible, what moon phase was your PB caught during?

 

 

Thanks for your answers,

 

Brian
