FISHING MEMORIES ARE THE BEST Cleaning our boat today - or scrubbing about anything - tends to let my mind wander. I heard a loud splash on Table Rock Lake, which usually means a large bass flipping his tail at me. And that brought to mind a comment made by a client this week.

NO CULLING ON TABLE ROCKTable Rock Lake is an excellent bass lake, and therefore a popular Bass Tournament location, where "culling" is often used."Culling" is the practice of releasing a fish that was caught, so a larger one can be kept. This can mean the difference during a tournament of winning or losing. July and August are the months when the no culling rule applies. During these months, as the water heats up, oxygen for the fish gets scarce and mortality rates rise. Tournament bass anglers may cull live bass from September through June. Missouri's limit on black bass is six per … (3 comments)
