  1. What year and up should I be looking for? Should I wait and save up some more money?
  2. Ok, very true! Honestly, I am a college student looking to get a first boat. I have $3000 saved up as of now, and still going. What type of boat should I be looking at? I am going to want to be able to fish some team tournaments with it, here and there...and to do some pre-fishing. Any ideas? I live in CA, Bay Area.

  5. Ive never put anything other than braid on my bait casters, and i heard that casting with other line is completely different. Any tips for me? Is it really that different?

  7. Im a largemouth fisherman and have my baitcasters rigged with 50 and 65lb powerpro, and 2 spinner reels setup with 6lb flouro and 1 spinning reel with 8lb mono/gama, and one ultralight with 4lb test.

Which setup would i use for these types of fish..Braid for Musky/bass. etc..........6another sitelouro for..... Also am i gona need the braided line or should i string up something smaller on it for the smallmouth. As you can see i have never gone smallmouth fishing and dont know the diff between the two. Thanks.
  8. The water level has dropped atleast 15ft and now there are weeds from shore to 40ft. out. I am a shore fisherman and looking for tips on how to fish light cover. There are just alot of weeds,i threw a frog, and a spinner bait but i had a hard tome ripping the spinner bait through there. What else do you guys suggest,im going to head out there ina few hours. thanks.
  9. LAKES: Flaming Gorge Pineview Rockport Starvation Utah Which one do u guys rank as the best, and some tips for whatever lake you know. Im going here next week.
  10. Went to Wal-Mart to do some shopping today and i went to the fishing section and i saw these for only 39.99. Why are they so cheap.
  11. I bought three the other day and have noticed that they all fill up with water. I feel like every cast im squeezing the water out so my frog can float. anyone else have this problem? Can i return em? The designs on them look great tho.
  12. Been going out the last four days and have had no luck. I throw a frog 50% of the time and have missed a few fish. Ive thrown out fat ikas too, also a jig w/ a trailer on it w/ beads. The lake i fish has some spots that have heavy vegetation and also some spots where there is none. Where would you fish and what would you throw. I usually go out from 8-midnight. Thanks.
  13. I will be going to school up there next year and am wondering if there is any bass fishing up there. I know there are some great bass shops down there but havnt heard much about bass fishing up there. thanks.
  14. Thanks for the reply, thats exactly what i needed to know.
  15. I was looking into buying a used bass boat, but i am wondering if i am going to need to get it insured. Also what other fees do i need to know about before buying. Thanks.
  16. I have one reel w/ 30# power pro for pretty much everything, another with 50# for frogging and spinner baits through tough cover and am debating what to put on my new reel? I want something light but now to light. What do you guys suggest, and what size line do you guys have on your setups.
  17. I live in the Bay Area, CA. Im 18 and wondering if it is possible to fish a tournament if I don't have a boat? Are there shore tournaments? Can i rent a boat? Can someone fill me in, ive fished my whole life and would like to fish some tourney's for fun. Thanks.
  18. Im looking to do a little road trip over the summer with a few buddies to do some fishing. Where in California would you recommend? I live in the Bay Area, so not somewhere too close. A few must haves: Boat Rentals Good fishing Decent place to stay. Few other things to do while there. Thanks..
  19. I had the same problem at first with braided line, you just need to get used to it. Ever since i got used to it, all i use is braided line, its the best. Did you put backing on it? I know sometimes the braided line slips around if there isnt any on there.
