Lake Amistad Fishing, ShareLunker No. 400

[Getthenet]

February 28, 2006. Budweiser ShareLunker No. 400. Jason Baird’s decision to hire guide Ray Hanselman, Jr., to take him bass fishing on Lake Amistad paid off handsomely. Baird caught Budweiser ShareLunker No. 400 and will receive a check for $5,240 and a G.Loomis rod and Shimano reel package valued at $600 at the ShareLunker banquet in Athens June 3. Baird used a Smallie Beaver creature bait to entice the bedded bass to bite. She was 26 inches long and 21 inches around. In April that fish produced the biggest single spawn in the history of the ShareLunker program, 46,678 eggs.

I was not aware that there was money connected to the share a lunker program. How does that work?

If it's the #400 bass caught-- this is how the money comes into play. So if you catch a bass over 13 pounds call TPWF and they can tell you what number was caught and reported.

Who counted the eggs? I bet that took awhile.

I don't think they did... but probley weighed them..
