Hello from up in Otsego County and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ One of the many great aspects of this forum is the Search tool. Upper right-hand corner of the page. I typed in Life Jackets and got this. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/search/?q=Life%20Jackets&quick=1&search_in=titles&start_after=any&updated_after=any It should help quite a bit.

Sweet ! Perhaps think of the travel as part of the adventure. Are you flying into Los Mochis or Culiacán ? Hope you can follow up with a number of big bass reports. Good Luck A-Jay

Can't find the words. Really sorry. A-Jay

I know, right? I have most of an entire season that has the potential to be a super special for big fish brown bass between us and this next Baccarac trip. But despite the great times that offers, perhaps because it is closer and more accessible, these Mexico trips have a way of capturing our imagination and commanding extra excitement that is hard to match. Plus almost being pulled overboard by a few of those grouper size Crazy mexican giants, Gets addicting awfully fast ! A-Jay

I'm pleading the 5th on this one ~ 😐 A-Jay

Classic! I laughed right out loud. Wish I had that kind of mojo. I would only use it for good. A-Jay

That can be a tough time of year for smallies. Only make a few trips to fish for them in July. I'd go with a guide for sure and I might lean towards a floated river trip. Maybe go north - like I need a passport north Good Luck and enjoy your time off. You've earned it. A-Jay

Still lots of this going on ~ But it's Tanker Tuesday and for this one, I'm dropping an 'Other Species' specimen into this thread. 65 Days and a Wake Up A-Jay

The Local County Road Commission is very good at their job. They are fully equipped and prepared for all the lake effect snow this area receives. Can't imagine what the end of my drive would look like if that continuous wall of snow they deposited went unaddressed all winter. Some years it's like a job. A-Jay

Not to be a hi-jacker of my own thread but Forget the cash thing !!!!!!!! What are you paying your insurance company for if you're doing all the work ? I would get a repair estimate and submit the claim to my insurance. File a POLICE Report Along with the info you have on the human that actually caused the damage. You already paid them; let/make them do their job. They have a very special set of skills to get "Their" money back. And now the rant is over. Back to our regularly scheduled programming. A-Jay

Be careful what you ask for. You might end up on your roof with a shovel. Perhaps instead of asking for our winter, you might consider begging for the Pre-Spawn. A-Jay

I think I might have chosen to utilize AI to develop the AI Community Guidelines. A-Jay

Workout Day 3 ~ Completed 3 working sets of the 5 scheduled movements and nothing broke off. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

Hello (again) and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

Greg Hackney in the house. I love listening to this guy. He's sort of morphed into a bit of a Cajun Zen Master. #CZM A-Jay

I did notice that, although the product details indicate it can be glued down over carpet, in all the advertisement photos I've seen, the product was glued down to a bare metal deck. And then the rest of the deck was covered with what looks like that Dek-It covering. Not sure what the deal is with that. A-Jay

Those of us on this side of the line define defeat differently. It's not a fishless days, defeat is dropping a giant at the boat. #horror https://youtu.be/yfnYSE-HjIE?si=q2WoUWq79OSl-X1U&t=887 A-Jay

I'd say, given the way information is available now (all kinds of information), compared to what bassheads had to work with 40 years ago, I think it's a wash. It was, still is and will always be hard to find, and catch the smallest population of bass per acre in any body of water. But some of us will be putting this to the test, both domestically and internationally. Hope we get to use the scale—a lot. A-Jay

I had to check but looks like you're right. As for the rest of that mayhem, been there done that and you are certainly welcome to keep that whole mess to yourself. Stay Safe and watch out for the crazy people. They seem to be everywhere this time of year. A-Jay

It's always right there—just calling my name. A-Jay

Nice Bass ! I fish for big brown bass in northern Michigan. I do not throw the type of swimbaits you do. But I am right there with you on just about ALL the rest. And IMO, it's far from useless. Your response here screams like a basshead who's put in the work. Nicely Done. The one thing I'd add is . . . . IME, one big reason folks that endeavor to catch Big Bass do not, is because they give up easily. Targeting trophy bass requires immense mental fortitude, patience, and the acceptance that many trips will result in little action. Good Luck this spring. I'd be happy to welcome you into the 8 lb club. A-Jay

Rumor has it some of them did. Apparently, it didn't go well. A-Jay
