Bassnbrett101

You may be addicted to bass fishing when: 1. When you're talking about fishing and someone overhears they give you a dirty look because they think you're talking about something sexual, and it happens often 2. The boat on your lawn costs more than your house did 3. You'd rather your wifes car sit outside than your boat and truck 4. Your fishing buddy's know more about you than your wife and/or girlfriend 5. "The fish are biting" is a plausible excuse for being late to work 6. Your best friends are the ones you fish with 7. You can't even stop dreaming about bass fishing 8. When theres ice on the lake you and your friends break a big hole in it just to have enough room to cast a jerkbait or jig. 9. If you kept every fish you caught it would decimate lake populations 10. And if you pick your wife dependant on how much she complains about how much you go fishing!

Welcome to the boards! How far are youu from latrobe?

Thats Bad A!! dude!! I would never imagine sneaking into a palace as a tourist to go fishing! lmao

A good friend of mine used to fish that lake alot and only has good things to say about it! Good luck, may the bite be with you

Get better soon!

lol to popeyes post I'm gonna say a lucky craft pointer fishing extremely slow or a lipless crankbait at the slowest you can go without catching weeds. preferably at a dropoff or a point

I use four colors for all my fishing, Green pumpkin, smoke purple, black neon, and rootbeer with a red and black fleck. Can't go wrong with those four colors!

Yeah smallies definitely are not afraid to eat something as big as them

Where you fishing at? p.s. I wanna hear how good you did after its over ;D

I am glad I am not the only one. I think I caught an '88 corolla. -searoach LMAO!!!

Thats why all the boat manufacturers make the bigger front decks now! lol

I'm not the best with jigs. Theres nowhere i would actually throw a jig where a texas rigged tube wont work ;D I've only thrown a swimbait a handful of times. I'm not even close to being good at deep structure cranking. lol and for the getting out of bed at 3 am, I try to either go to bed early of not sleep at all and drink alot of coffee lol

I do for one, I am opening a fishing clothing store X2 Plus those new vented shirts everyone is wearing are really nice. Everyone in my club has one and we can't stop complimenting the designers! ;D

Basically i have three spots that produce for me. the ledge by the dam, crib point (which is no secret), and the creek.

How come? Two years ago our youth club had a tournament there and i limited out. A fish that was probably close to six (I got a real good look at him, and I'd say she was probably bigger) broke my line. you gotta make sure to fish the top end of the lake and the big cove to the right of the launch ramp.

wow, yeah i severely dislike meat hunters like that. I know they have as much right to water as we do, its just disappointing to see that many fish gone in one day. I knew about the HP restrictions and thats why i can't take my boat there. my buddy just has a johnboat with a trolling motor, that boat fits any hp restrictions ;D

Hmmm.... All those fish look to be the same size as the so called world record..... Those are amazing fish though and the fish look absolutely stunning. Great Job Fish Chris!!!

lol i know, i want to get out there but I always find myself going to loyalhanna or the rivers. My buddy has a johnboat though and we might make a trip down there this summer.

That fish is crazy lookin. it's kinda cool though

Atleast it portrays public schools in a realistic way lmao!

how would you target the snakehead? are they more prone to hit swimbaits, jerkbaits, or spinnerbaits? what was your buddy and his friends catching them on?

X2 I prefer a zoom trick worm instead of a senko but its the same technique, and it produces very well for me in ponds

I'v never fished Keystone power dam but i heard its a great lake. Is it primarily smallmouth fishing?

Donogal is a pretty amazing lake, there are some huge fish in there too! Thats where I started fishing when I was little, i remember gettin shiners at the bait shop and looking at all the pictures on the wall lol. Its where I started fishing lures too, that lake holds alot of memories for me.

my favorite place to fish is the mon river, the ten mile pool
