Favorite squarebills
Clearly my squarebill arsenal does include a decent dose of SK baits. Mostly because they they catch bass for me. However, there's a few others mixed in there as well and they get bites too. btw - while I fish both rattle and silent baits, I do lean toward the silent baits more than half the time. A-Jay

Home repairs. I wish I had more knowledge in the matter.
And or non code/unfinished work by another contractor . . . . The old take the money & run gig. ? A-Jay

Working to Stay Lean ~
Took advantage of yesterday's off day to eat and sleep; got a bit more of both. Back at it this morning with Total Body 2. Step back Lunge, Toe Press, Overhead Shoulder Press, Weighted Chin-Ups, Leaning Press and Cable Crunches. As my ability and capacity to recover improves so does my performance in the home gym. I like that. These videos don't really draw much attention, which is totally cool. Regardless, posting them helps keep me motivated. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

A different look?
I am one of those Bassheads who will 'switch things up'. Perhaps not as much as I used to, but I still do it. Mostly looking for a change in sound, size/profile, running depth & finally bait color/pattern. Being on fish that shut off in an area and changing something has gotten me a few more at times. So I'll usually have an assortment rigged. A-Jay

Favourite Topics
Good Question @Mobasser . . . . Topics having most anything to do with chasing downing big brown bass from deep clear lakes almost always draw my interest, including the techniques & tackle used to do so. Other topics include but are limited to conversations regarding Night Bassing, Health & Fitness and of course . . . Dogs. When I was shopping & doing the research for my rig 2015/2016. I learned and got a metric TON of killer info & advice regarding just about everything. Boat, Motor, Trailer & accessories. I really appreciated that. Definitely saved me time & $$$. Which happen to be two of my favorite things . . . . So thanks for that BR. In the end, I hope I can keep learning. A-Jay

what is your pocketknife?
Not to mention a waste of a perfectly good 35 cent bullet. A-Jay

have you caught a bass on all your rod combos?
Yes ~ And the toughest ones were the A-Rig set ups. That one took me at least a couple of seasons. Got her done though and haven't looked back. Incidentally, I've sold some sticks to a few BR members that have taken a few respectable bass. And it looks like there may be a few more available this fall. #thinningtheherd A-Jay

what is your pocketknife?
Growing up, I was taught a man always carries a pocket knife. Despite how times have changed, unless I'm heading to the airport, this ones with me. This Gerber Silver Knight was originally a father's day gift. Some time after he passed several years ago, my mom sent it back to me. Pic is what it looked like new. Though the edge is still quite capable, 53 years of pocket life, has the art work has worn completely away. Easily one of my most prized possessions. A-Jay

Home repairs. I wish I had more knowledge in the matter.
I'm all about DIY home repair. Having the right tool for the job has proven very helpful and over the years I've learned a lot and collected some tools. But something that I truly believe in is that a man needs to know his limitations. I do not dive into anything but The Simplest of plumbing or electric work and I never even think about messing with anything to do with GAS. Stay in your lane works for me and I do not mind paying for professionals on those deals. Finally watching DIY YouTube videos doesn't always end well, can be costly and even dangerous. A-Jay

Lure size and colors: backups of backups, or variety?
I hear ya ~ And there's most likely something to that. But I have some low level and deeply seeded mental issues. So there's that. A-Jay

Lure size and colors: backups of backups, or variety?
Good luck with that deal. A-Jay

Lure size and colors: backups of backups, or variety?
Agreed ~ I have/carry duplicates of the duplicates of many different hard baits. A-Jay

24 June 2022 ~ Another Old Town Adventure
Been floating in the canoe a lot lately. My wife & I did a this trip recently looking for largemouth. This lake has a population of mostly small bass but it's secluded & quite. So the trade off is worth it. A swimjig & a Texas rigged craw did most of the heavy lifting for us. A-Jay

Starting a garden
If you have plant eaters like deer & rabbits, they will eat it all well before it even gets going. All at night. A very high fence which covers the top and is buried in the ground might deter them. No garden for me here way too many hungry and very determined mouths. A-Jay
