Glad it worked out for you. Might be a new fishing buddy on a regular basis.

Always fish with your best mojo, ie fish with an attitude, be aggresive, think. Fish big fish water if you want to improve your chances of catching big fish. When your not catching move or do something different to get your mojo back. Have a plan B, plan C etc. Learn to master a specific technique and then add some more. Don't be a one horse pony. Study the guys on bass resource that share their techniques & spend their time helping others. You all know who they are. Lastly put in the time to get better. It will happen.

And how is that working for you?

Great report.

In my opinion you could be correct.

Sick man! Talking about the eggplant.

Thanks for keeping us informed Stitch. Hope you tolerate it better as you go along. We are all pulling for you.

Never met a shimano I didn't like. Just like some more than others.

I disagree. The Antares dc is not the same reel as the Antares hg 2012. The are two different generations. The Antares dc is the jdm equivalent of the Calais dc. The new 2012 Antares is head & shoulders above all previous Antares models. The new 2013 met is the little brother to the 2012 Antares .

Should have named it the tale of the tail in Memphis. Sooner or later you are going to get rewarded.

WTG. Great fish & pictures.

Can you share some pictures of that 15+ bass? I would love to see it.

Congrats on the great trip & fish. Sounds like your friend has his own piece of pardise right in his back yard. Beautiful setting.

Don't wait. The effectiveness of that bait will work with or without trout stocking.

Way to tough it out bud. Sounds cold. It is a learning process. Paying your dues will be rewarded.

It was a pleasure fishing with you Stitch. We will do it again.

Sweet PB. Congrats to you guys.

Sounds like you scored a bullseye. Maybe your homeowners insurance will cover it.

Dang J your almost as old as me. Happy BD.

Not fishing would be the dark side for Fish Chris

Good recovery.

That is my favorite blank for big smallies. It handles the Waldo's, lakers & steeliness as well. Nice looking handle too.

It's about time. I thought you went to the dark side.
