Welcome!

Look at that! Not the cleanest looking in the world but I'll take it. 8-) Thanks guys

ahh a perspective i have never seen nor tried..hmm awesome thanks I agree. good post roadwarrior

I'd recommend fishing on the slower side of things. If there is a massive change in water clarity then the fish are more likely to become inactive. On a positive note, the fish will position on shallow cover like everyone has said. You can also take their word on lure selection too Mottfia

I've always wondered the same thing. lol Oh well I'm starting to enjoy this face of mine.

;D ;D ;D Death By Carmel Delight, sounds like a best selling novel lol yea an erotic Novel LOL

That major is a beast of a MAN. Remind me to shake his hand one day!

I'm a day late but happy birthday FBL

I love the "Slow Children at Play" signs. I giggle like a little school girl everytime I see one. ;D

I like dynomite in nasty weather

Depends! For that cost it can't be too awesome BUT you can catch fish on a rod and reel with any price. I fished with some pretty cheap stuff throughout the years and they did just fine. Can you give us some more detail on what it is? Like the action of the rod and what type of reel it is? Mottfia

Honestly I don't pay much attention to what THEY don't use much anymore. On the local level there are great anglers that know that they can catch fish with a specific lure or style no matter what the pros are scoring on. And they do consistently! It has alot to do with their confidence. But I'm sure the older guys can go into better detail about lures that have faded anmd one's that still produce Mottfia

Bass Fillets are DELICIOUS

Great Post. Most people don't think about that too often. I have no problem with two piece rods ( cept when they come apart and I have half a rod in my hand and the other out there with my lure lol 8-)) but a one piece definitely gives you a feel advantage.

Welcome Iceman. hope you enjoy the road trip :-/...wish I could go :'( Mottfia

glad to see ya on board. Welcome

welcome to the board

Awesome Fish. Thats amazing! double digits! Congradulations! Mottfia

come on Hottiesf...I mean -watch-me- ... give us some details on what you were doing. What worked? What didn't? got any pics to show off? Mottfia

Look out now! thats an awesome catch! ;D

Congrats on that Hawg. I'm thinking harder about getting me one of those swimbaits

Down here Buzzbaits are a ticket to catching some amazing stringers. Tho there are alot of brands of buzzbaits, I am a fan of Lunker Lure. Black, White, and Chartreuse are my favorite colors....shot I can't even say that I know that they make other colors : I personally don't use trailers but I know a number of people that do. The deciding factor is the speed that you want the lure to be moving. Fast fishermen like me go without but guys that like the slower side of things will find a trailer right up their alley. They really allow you to slow the lure down to insanely slow speeds.

That's a pretty cool thing to do Mottfia
