Just maybe there were 100's of guys just like you doing the same thing summer after summer and thats why there are no 6 and 7 pound smallies swimming around like there used to be. Id also like to mention that the "spring loaded" scales of the 60's and 70's were by no means accurate at all. Depending on the condition of the spring in the scale they could be off by pounds not just ounces.
