On a different subject, fished this Sunday and landed about a dozen bass. If you look at JB's video, you can see the tails of some of the fish look like the stripes are completely removed on the side directly above the tail. I know these big females have damage to their tails I assume from fanning the beds when they drop their eggs but I don't ever recall seeing damage that far up on their sides in past years. Has anyone else noticed this and is it from the spawning process? You can see it pretty clearly in the video JB posted. Just curious.
