DL - Which do you prefer more, the business side or fishing side of pro bass fishing?

 

TH - I'd say the fishing side with one exception- my lure business. It's the designing of a lure that really intrigues me, but I enjoy the fishing side better.

 

DL - What is your most embarrassing moment in fishing?

 

TH - Man, so many of them. Okay, going to the Bassmaster Classic in Chicago as the reigning Angler of the Year and I zeroed all three days. That was the biggest piece of humble pie I've ever eaten.

 

DL - Steak or dessert?

 

TH - It would have to be steak. Steak is just one of my favorite things to eat. I like a medium-rare filet mignon. Just salt and pepper for seasoning. I don't want to take away from the good beef flavor.
