How did you do I havent fished Conway much but it can be good if you find them schooling

Where are you going on the river. The shad are thick around Lk Monroe. I havent been out there in a while

I thought it was $5 to launch at the small ramp by the college.

I was thinking of trying WP as well. I know you can pay a daily fee now instead of buying the yearly pass.

Where do you normally fish from? I fish the river out of Sanford. Any luck with FOM? I am planning on fishing the Legacy Series with my son this year.

Went this weekend out of camp mack we ended up cathing about 30 fish on the southeast side of the lake. Most fish were between 12"-14" and a couple around 2 lbs. Couldn't find any of the big ones. Most of the fish were caught on flukes

Heading down to Camp Mack this weekend. What areas did you fish on Kissimmee? I have only been once before with limited success.

St Johns can be hit or miss as well. I believe there was just a shad spawn I was out yesterday and there were bunches of pods of small bait moving around the river at the mouth of Monroe. Look for the bait and the schoolies should be around. Water is still up and moving with the recent rains. Where are you putting in at?

Very nice I didn't see any power but I guess we could bring solar panels, but it is lakefront. Parking might be a little tough. I'm sure the gators would slide in and keep you cozy at night. Any chance on getting a continental breakfast out there? ;D

thanks

I am taking my son down to fish Stick Marsh the end of July. We are planning on spending the weekend and I need some help with finding a hotel. What is my best bet as far as location, parking space with electric for charging batteries, security for boat and gear? Thanks guys.

Any information would be greatly appreciated we are heading up there in July for a family vacation. We are camping on the lake on the Georgia side. Thanks in advance.

Completed the survey it just takes a few minutes.

Does anyone know what the water level is like at Lake Yale? Is the canal out from the ramp too low to launch? I have a small tournament on 4/18 and just trying to see if we need to work on a back up. Hopefully the recent rains have helped. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hammerhead fits by big head the best

Nice work...I believe the second pic is a warmouth.

BPS Crankin Stik is on sale now for under $50 i believe it is $39

As said before a lot has to do with the picture (camera angle, holding the fish out, etc). But most fishermen by nature tend to exaggerate a bit (all except me ). Just look at the Lunker Club in the back of Bassmaster Mag and you will see fish that are grossly over estimated.

You might want to check out Holly Chain or Lake Yale, which are both in Lake county. They are both nice lakes and a little less pressured than Johns Lake or the other big chains.

Good luck on your new setup. Don't get frusterated with the BC, it will be frusterating at first. But will begin to feel natural after a little practice. I can't tell you how many fish I caught digging out a backlash when I first started w/ the BC. I would pick out the backlash and reel up the slack and feel the line swimming away.

You should be able to rig something up w/ 3/4 or 1" PVC.

Thanks for the replies!!!

I am looking to purchase a flipping stick for around $100. Could you guys give me some recommendations? I would like a 7'6" and would prefer a telescopic type rod. Thanks

good to hear
