After a few thousand hours fishing, a few thousand spent, and several years of fishing in East TN, I finally put twenty different citation fish on the measuring board for master angler five award. I was pretty darn excited. From chasing trophy walleye during winter storms after dark, deep dropping for big lake trout, or tossing big swimbaits to musky, it's always kept me going out and pursuing the next big trophy fish with friends.

And a big thanks to the the TWRA for introducing the TARP program several years ago.
It made it both challenging and rewarding by forcing us to learn several new bodies of water and learning the different fishing techniques used to catch them.
Go give it a try!

Which one was the easiest to get? Which one was the most difficult?

I am a LONG way from his level, I only have 6, but for me and my catches the crappie was the easiest and bluegill was the hardest.
Took me 7 years to catch one.
For whatever reason I have been on a tear with them lately though. 🤷‍♂️
