How Is The Unusually Warm Weather Effecting Your Prespawn Fishing
Went to my local lake thats about 150 acres. With the warm weather part of the lake is at 60 degrees and the other part was at 52. The lake is about a foot low which is a lot for this lake and weeds are everywhere. Im a little upset that the lake came up in temp so quick as the early prespawn is my favorite and that the lake is so weedy cause of no freeze. anyway i did notice that there were tons of small bass in the shallows from 4 to 1 feet deep. I didnt see a bass over 2 lbs and probably 100 under. It seems like the small schoolies moved in. But where are the big girls? I always thought they are the first to move in. but maybe with this wacky weather the smaller bass moved in first? I tried the first drop off to no avail. So what are your experiences with this situation.

How Do You Guys Store Hair Jigs
I have a bunch and I was wondering if you just throw them in a box or do you have a special case for them. I see as i put them in a box they almost get "box hair" like "hat head" after wearing a baseball cap for awhile

Major Interference With My Humming Bird And Minn Kotas
just got the traxxis 55lb variable. I have a 798 ci si that is used with that motor and on my larger boat which has a 80lb thrust terrova. How bad is this issue and does motor guides have these same issues? Do i need to get rid of my hummingbirds? I have ground some wires and am checking tomorrow before i blow a fuse.( no pun intended) how do the pros work with trolling motor mounted transducers and not have interference? any tips or ideas would be great. travis

What Kind Of Line Do You Like For These Applications?
Im getting much more rod specific per technique and situation than i ever thought i would. what kind of line would you use for these applications. 1. Top water- using spooks and other topwaters with trebles 2. shallow cranking- 0-7 feet, crankbaits round wood and rocks 3. medium to deep cranking- 8-20+, would also use this rod for lipless cranks as i have liked this combo. i like to hear all of your opinions so have at it travis-
