I'm right handed so I hold them with my left and Fillet with my right ~ A-Jay

Should be a an entertaining event with interesting and competitive fights all over the fight card. But Jones is a freak and until he fights someone that can get to Jones's legs and slow down his attack (perhaps put him more on the defensive) while avoiding all the lethal weapons the Champ possesses, I don't see the belt changing hands.

Very Nice ~ That happens here occasionally in the spring and fall. Sometimes I'll throw a smaller jerkbait and get some decent trout. Were you throwing baits that targeted bass and catching the trout as by catch or were you tossing trout type baits ? And what lures were they ? A-Jay

Yes Sir ~ that Blue Craw will be added to the arsenal. Blue seems to be a good sunny day color for me. A-Jay

Very nice write up and a great Looking Bass ! And it sounds like Sawyer will be looking for some Sponsorship soon . . . A-Jay

I haven't put up the gear just yet, so there is a chance. But the lakes here will start to freeze over very soon. The cakes were quite tasty - I went with the beer batter. A-Jay

Good for you. I used this to help me quit ~ Believe in yourself Control your mind Mentally turn away from your failures Make right decisions Know yourself Never accept defeat You must see it in your mind's eye, before you can believe it Accept your great future Stay Strong. A-Jay

Welcome to BR Paul. Cool video. I have to say though - a fall crankbait bite in 58 degree water, at least in this neck of the woods, is Always a PRE - Turnover period. No doubt it's a great time to fish as the bass are eager to chase down the bait and hammer it. The Turnover here is characterized by colder dirty water and the fish are rarely as charged up about eating especially a fast moving horizontal presentation. I really have to force feed them with something low and slow to get them to bite at all. Those surely are some hefty smallies either way. A-Jay

Perhaps he could "see" you, on account of dem Camouflage shorts and all. A-Jay

Thanks All - And RW - That Roadtrip might be in the cards for me in the spring. I'll be looking for those detail, hoping for the right set of circumstances and of course reasonable weather . . . A-Jay

The wind finally let up so I hit the lake for what would most likely be the dreaded Last Trip. Water temps were high 30's. First stop was a "hole" with some wood in 35 fow. Hummingbird revealed that there were several fish on it. Turned out to be brown fatties. First few casts they gobbled up the swimbait but then shut off. This was the coldest water I've caught bass with a swimbait. But, it was over just as quickly as it started. I managed to stay unfrozed until dark and took home a few "Eater" sized walleyes for diner. It's been a decent season. I hope this winter isn't too long. A-Jay

Yea, me too and btw, adding a scent to that bait would be redundant. A-Jay

Great looking fish Dwight. And that Smallie looks THICK ! A-Jay

I was referring to the last game as The Super Bowl. I AM a Pats Fan and that was such a magic season. But that ONE Loss - was B R U T A L. A-Jay

No doubt, the Packers look very strong. If they're gonna blow a game, fans have to hope it's just not the Last One. A-Jay

Way to Go Rooster ~ OK, I am running out of things to say here . . . . Another Tremendous Bass ! A-Jay

Very Nice - Thanks for sharing. That sounds like it was one heck of a fight on such light line. A-Jay

What ? Eddie B was the OP. Did you bump your head or do you have the Marty Feldman eyes as well ? Although I'd be very proud to call this my catch - it's not . A-Jay

Nice Brown Bass ! Congrats ~ A-Jay

Wow ! What a Great Bass and nice photo. Any chance we could hear the story of how you got her ? Congrats. A-Jay

Yes sir - that is the best "how-to" I've seen as well. Thanks for sharing this. A-Jay

I think this might have been bouncing around for a while but it still made me laugh. A-Jay
