inflatible boat
save your money and get a float tube you can get a really nice one for 100 or so bucks if you plan on fishing during the cold season then youll have to invest in wader about 50 or so bucks and then fins 20 bucks you definnatly find that its way worth it

Solunar tables.... What do you think???
someone once told me perfect weather ( i.e. sunny and clear )means inperfect fishing. and i have found this to be true. the only time i know fishing will be good when its clear and sunny is when its topwater -season and durrng this time i concentrate my fising on mornings and afternoons. other than that i usually like partly cloudy and a slight breeze. try and track the weather if you can get at just as the barometric pressure begins to fall thats prime, if a low pressure cold front is a day away head out to the lake you cold be in for one heck of a day. i hate it when the water is like glass. just my .02

The best way to work a texas rigged worm????
the best way is the way the fish will take it. try just dragging and pausing, also try hopping and shaking a new thing that is really knocking them dead is shaky head rigs they cant stand it

What to use?
as for a buzzbait trailer hooks are not neccesary i watched a vid of KVD and i cant remember what he said but he was saying that the way a buzzbait is designed it doesnt need a trailer hook i do remember him saying that it had something to do with its weedlessness but i suppose if your fishing the open water your fine

when should i go???????????
okay finally the winds will cease.just want everyones opinion on when i should go heres the weekend forcast: SATURDAY- mainly sunny sky. High 81F. Winds ESE at 15 to 25 mph SUNDAY-Partly cloudy skies in the morning will give way to cloudy skies during the afternoon. High around 85F. Winds SSE at 10 to 20 mph IM KINDA THINKING SUNDAY WILL BE A BETTER CHOICE SINCE WINDS WILL BE DOWN ALITTLE AND PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES SHOULD CAUSE THE BAROMETRIC PRESSURE TO DROP AND THE FISH MIGHT BE MORE ACTIVE .....BUT I STILL NEED YOUR INPUT

Most irritating fishing condition?
okay i only fish this 40 or so acre pond here in el paso, tx and the wind here(i.e. desert) sucks so bad since i float tube it i cant really handle anything over 15 mph. THE WIND BY FAR IS THE WORST CONDITION TO FISH IN PERIOD!!!!!!!!

Pre spawn tactics...
id saY for pre-spawn bass your best lure selections will be carolina rigs, jigs, hard jerkbaits-fished slow, and you may even want to try and fineese them with some drop shotting since they have alreaddy prep themselve for spawn and gorged themselve they may either do it again or theY could be lock jawwed so finnese coUld be your key for succes o ya and dont forget the all mighty SHAKKY HEAD ITS A KILLER WHEN BASS WONT BITE

very dirty water clarity help!!!!!!
okay so i just got to el paso TX from southen california and have always been an avid float tuber for huge bass in soCAL. there is one city park pond here in el paso ive tubed it about 4 times and caught a few bass each time. locals have told me there are some big bass in it. biggest known caught is 9 pounds. the issue im having is not being used to this dirty water, the water is very dingy visibility (its about the color of dried up tules) is only about a foot or so. i need some suggestions on lure colors. so far all my fish have been caught tight against tules and all on white- either jig/pig, senko, 3in grub
