    If not Sabine, where?

    Everyone keeps saying theres better river systems to go than Sabine…. Ok, where? It’s been mentioned the Ohio sucks…. Seems to me, the Arkansas isn’t all that great… Red is very worn out and doesn’t produce like it did, from my experience… It didn’t seem like the Tenn-Tom was a ball of fire….

    they already go to the upper Mississippi pretty regularly….

    Potomac, Sacramento, Columbia River, I’d even say the Hudson River is better for quality

    There'd only be half the field able to fish after their trucks and trailers disappeared during practice days and their gear got gone overnight.

    They are going to whoever pays them the most to come. Bass could care less where it is as long as they getting that check.

    I would love to see an Elite tournament on the Ohio river just to see if it's as bad as people say it is.

    If they were smart, the top 10 would fish the Angelina south of Rayburn.

    I am in no way a “pro” level fisherman but, that river is the toughest place I’ve ever fished. I mean I fished a couple BASS Top 8 tournaments there and I don’t think it took more than 8 pounds to win both of them. I remember in one of them I watched a guy fishing in a separate club tournament catch a four pound fish and he won his derby. There’s a few state Federation guys that do consistently good fishing the Ohio but they don’t set the world on fire.

    If it's going to be tough fishing make the whole experience tough. Hire a few guys to mug them at the ramp and then shout out info at their motels
    There's lots of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.
