re: OT - Any largemouth bass fisherman here?

Absolutely. When I had a boat, I used to fish West Point a lot and loved it but it was nothing compared to this lake that haunts my dreams between trips. Nothing like being on a pond that size and maybe seeing two other boats on a weekday. Five or six tops on a weekend. I still remember the day, long ago in Athens when I first became friends with my buddy. We worked together at the same restaurant and immediately had a lot in common. He was from Valdosta and one day after work he came by my house and saw all my fishing gear on my porch. He said " so it looks like you like to fish." Next thing I know I am heading southbound on 75 two days later to check out this place he talked up so much. He has been my best friend since those years and his mom and dad are like a second pair of parents to me. I could live 10 lives and not luck into a regular fishing destination like this one.
