Great looking bass you got there!!!

Great story and great point Ronnie. I have had many situations as this. I worked for an agricultural company and everytime I had to do work for people that had lakes or ponds I would ask them. Most of them would tell me no but I thought that if I did an outstanding job for them they would ask for me to do their work again. Well it worked with almost everyone and before I knew it I had more places to fish then I could have ever thought of. This is how I have the awesome lake I fish now!!!! I always pick up any trash that I see and when I run into the owners I make it a point to tell them that other people are leaving trash and not to worry about it that I am picking up every peice that I see, I do this so they will continue to let me fish!!! -Nitroman

I sent you a PM

Well as hard as it is to pay bills I really feel sorry for anyone in the lower 97% lol

I think whenever they dicuss the next bait that they should send one that is larger and that you could cast on a regular baitcaster.

I'm gonna catch me one of those bas tards tomorrow!!! LOL

LOL so has everyone else HAHA But if you want to go shoot me a PM and i will check my days off.

My thought exactly!!

Oh, well I have a boat and if you ever want to hit it up just let me know.

I wouldn't use a stringer unless you are going to be keeping your catch. It is very hard to keep the fish alive on a stringer. If you are going to an off shore tournament you should have a live well availible. -Nitroman

Hey flippin4it, How often do you fish Aquia? I usually fish out of hope springs and do pretty decent. -Nitroman

Fish end up in many ponds that are never stocked. A bird could land in the water and grab something to eat and then move to another body of water, It is highly possible that the bird transplants the eggs to another area. It happens all the time!! -Nitroman

Couldn't have said it better myself! -Nitroman

Great point Paul!! I had a hard time grabbing a decent sized bass in the lily pads earlier this year, everytime I threw a frog I would miss but then I threw a stick bait in there a BAM I hammered her!! I have heard it so many times on fishing shows that whenever you are throwing topwater to always have a stick bait on another pole so you can always throw right back in there!! -Nitroman

What color do you prefer?? Where do I buy them? -Nitroman

If you are catching small panfish I would upsize your tackle. Larger crankbaits, spinnerbaits, worms, buzzbaits, topwater, jerkbaits. All are good. Jerkbaits should be great for lake Erie since it is such a clear lake. Good Luck to You!!! -Nitroman

I personally prefer the boxes. They keep them alot better organized. JMPO -Nitroman

Nice Pics!!!!!!!!! -Nitroman

Where I live it is encouraged to call the local Law Enforcement agency prior to shooting the animal. However I have killed a few deer that walk around limping and suffering. I manage a 1500 acre farm, If I see an injured deer I will put it down then I will call it in. I have been doing this since I was 15 when I started managing the herds. I have a great relationship with our game warden and everytime he talks to me he doesn't mind that I did what I did. If the animal is injured to where I didn't know what happened to it I will feed it to my deer dogs. I personally will not eat any deer meat that I didn't know how or why it died/ or suffering. -Nitroman
