Sam, thanks for the info. That is a very helpful post.

Great job! Catching a big bass on topwater is hard to beat.

Great fish. I bet he put a nice bend in the rod.

Great job. I love using a C-rig with lizards.

I do not own a shimano, but I do have 2 STX reels. You will not be dissapointed in these reels. They cast very well with little weight and the drag is very smooth. If I were you, I would definately buy the stx.

x2 This is the only line I have used on my baitcasters for at least 10 years. I love it. It casts great and it is inexpensive. I throw all types of lures on this line.

Now that is a fishing story

That is great to hear. Thank you for your service. The bass have been waiting patiently for you to return.

If you had insurance, yes. ;D If you do not have insurance, no. :'(

Nice fish! You have already found the major draw back of senkos, which is they tear up very easily.

Now that is a fatty. Good job!!

I had this same problem and I retured the reel after a month or so of use. It is a shame because I really like how the reel looks, love the twitchin bar, and it casts far. I would suggest that you get another reel.

Those are some some very nice fish. What kind of reels are those that your friend has? They look AWESOME!

Nice job, guys. That river looks like a nice place to kill a few hours.

They look great. The bluegill looks AWESOME!!! You should sell some.

I love fishing lizards and I have a LOT of success fishing them just like I fish a worm. I like to use both t-rig and c-rig.

A couple more... Marriage is a three ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering. Marriage is the only war in which you sleep with the enemy.

Maybe you should go get a couple of G-loomis rods and a couple new revos and tell her that you had to replace what someone stole ;D

While you may not be doing as well as you would like it sounds like you are doing the right things. Which are utelizing your electronics, changing lures and techniques, and trying different spots. Make sure you try diffrent retrival speeds. The most important thing is that you do not get discouraged. Maybe your dad should try one thing and you try another. Try a different body of water. It can be tough this time of year with the heat so try to find some current near a dam or a feeder river or creek. You can never fish a worm too slow. Good luck and have fun.

They chose Germany in 1936 , why would this surprise you ? When Germany was chosen to host the games, Hitler was not in power.

Nice gill. I bet he put up an awesome fight. That looks like a beautiful place to fish.

Nice one. You have been whacking them lately.

How big is that fish in the 2nd picture. That thing is a monster

My grandma used to catch the biggest fish all the time. Nice bass!!!
