Roman Made Mother

nearly coming to blows in

a Japanese tackle shop

over the right to purchase a

Mother in a rare color.

Then I went to a media

event in Georgia this past

March, where the group

spotted a nearly 9-pound bass

circling a bed in a pond behind

the lodge. Multiple anglers,

including two former B.A.S.S. Anglers of the Year, took a shot at her with typical springtime lures. After failing to interest her even slightly, another pro came out with the Roman Made and got her to commit after two casts. Sold!
