Jack Plate
Okay, so I've used the search here and found nothing. I've looked on the internet and I really just can't find the answer that I'm looking for. So would someone please explain EXACTLY what is the point of a jack plate? What are the benefits of having one vs not? Should I look into one for better performance on my boat?

PB - 7 lb barrier finally falls
Why didn't you just measure the fish instead of measuring the tacklebox then using the tacklebox to measure the fish??

Who influenced the way you fish?
To be 100% honest I'm just kinda makin stuff up as I go... Probably why I don't catch a gazillion fish like other people.

STOMACH PAINS
OW.. Were the wounds recent looking?? If not, it may have just been another fish got ahold of your bass. That'd make me feel better to know that I hadn't killed the fish... still would suck though.

Perfect reel for dad
I LOVE fishing. Dad is trying to get to LOVE fishing. He fishes with me every single weekend and has taken strides in improvement. This past winter he was even able to upgrade to being able to use a baitcast reel as well as spinning. However, the baitcast reel he uses is pathetic to say the least. I've been fishing with a baitcast for several years and I still as unable to cast his over 20 feet without a backlash. I have a Quantum Accurist and Pflueger Purist and can launch a 10" ribbontail a long long long ways with no sign of backlash. For his upcoming birthday, I want to buy him a nice reel so that he doesn't constantly backlash. So after this long paragraph, my question is are there any particular reels that are made specifically for casting without backlashing??

Setting the hook on spinnerbaits?
A trailor hook is a must for me. There is no telling how many fish I've hooked on the trailor hook and not the spinnerbait hook. Also try not looking at your spinnerbait. It was always hard at first for me because I wanted to watch the fish hit my spinnerbait. You'll miss more if you do because you react to sight not feel. Try checking out the landscape or looking around for your next casting location and set the hook on feel. Those two things helped me catch a SIGNIFICANT amount more fish..

Who here is on a "quest" for that one fish?
I would say that everyone here is on that "quest" for the big fish. I doubt anyone goes fishing not hoping deep down they catch the monster you only read about it magazines..

Just came across this...
THAT WAS FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!! Instead of lots of jigs and worms and spinnerbaits, I'm asking for a helicopter for Christmas so that I can go out and do that!!! I cant believe that marlin couldnt swim away with him on it like that..
