What annoys you?
wind wind and more wind i hate wind i never experienced it to much until i moved down here. I also hate jetskiers that think they have to ride all the way back into the cove your pitching in to spawning fish. friends who are loud in the boat as soon as they need a new lure they slam there tacklebox on the bottom of the boat. drop their plyers tromp up and down the boat.

good trout rod
haha thanks i figured you guys would say that but i will try the 5ft ultralight thanks again. i guess i wasnt to sure so even for big streams a 5ft is ok?

good trout rod
ok guys i just found out theres a trout stream 20 minutes from me and i was pumped because when i cant drive 2hrs to bass fish i can go there. i need to know what a good trout rod is for a small stream that is only about 10ft wide maybe. and lots of bushes and trees on the bank and over the water. Back home in michigan me and my buddy would wade a creek smaller than that for browns and we used a 4 ft ultralight rod and used small mepps spinners to catch them. what kind of rod do you all use? also for bigger streams i would like to know. and what different types of lures besides spinners because thats all i have ever used in michigan and alaska.

Your Craziest Day Fishing?
My craziest day starts at the end of October. My buddy and i had decided on a whim to go out and fish even though the conditions were not in our favour. We loaded up the modified jonboat with our fishing gear with all our tackle and fishing rods.We get to the lake and it is pouring down rain and 40 degrees outside and colder as it got later in the day. We both forgot to pack rain gear of course. So we get out on the lake hoping just to catch at least one bass for the both of us, but to our surprise we ended up everyother cast for the most part boating 50 or more bass from 2lbs to 4lbs. All the fish came on watermelon senkos and in 2-4ft of water over grass beds and anywhere we saw bluegills pushed up against the bank. We ended up getting so cold that we went to the party store on the lake and got trashbags to cover our wet bodies to try and retain some heat at least. That is the most memorable day bass fishing ever in my life. ive had memorable days before but nothing like that fateful day.

are the Optima batteries really better?
ive been told interstate are just as good or better than optima and cheaper. thats what im going with when i replace my batteries this spring.

heading out this morning
well i caught alot of water and thats it. i dont understand the water was 62-66 degrees depending on where you are at. but the fish would not bite. not to mention i couldnt find any either. i found bait but no bass. i tried jerkbaits, jigs, swimbaits, bush bugs, and crankbaits but nothing. i dont understand maybe someone here will. my theory is well i lived in michigan before and you could catch bass no problem up till ice up and i think that is because the fish are used to semi cold to cold water. Here the fish are used to really warm water so when it gets into the 60s they seem to get lockjaw idk maybe someone else has a better reason?

heading out this morning

installed new carpet and rod box
Well guys i finally installed new carpet and a rodbox in my 88 bass tracker 17ft. i wanted a rodbox put in because when i bought it there wasnt one and i hated not having it with rods all over my boat. it looks pretty darn good if i do say so myself. i can fit 8 rods in the locker. and believe it or not we took my whole boat apart to do this remodeling it was hard work. took 3 weeks with someone helping. this guy really helped me out alot and hooked me up. front middle back inside box
