Well saturday I got out on my private pond for about 30 minutes....we had a cold front come threw the day before so I knew it was going to be a little slower.....first thing I thought was jig-n-pig.....so I put a blue and black one on and tossed it to a deep fallin tree....bounced it once and slowly she swam of with it.....I set the hook..............(well I thought I did)................I almost had it to me when I watched it like a dolphin jump and throw the jig out.....I was pretty disapointed it was about 4 pounds..not a bad fish....and then later that day me and my friends had our own little tournament...long story short I won 4 to everyone elses 1 fish each.what worked for me was a terminator spiiner bait and a watermelon colored senko...........and today I didnt really fish....I worked on my pond alot and had to work..........but at 9 pm when I got off I fished the pond behind my work for the first time .....it looked pretty decent....I had one hit..I saw it , it was only bout a pound fish.....but that tells me there in thier......I saw that theres alot of baitfish so thats also a good sign.....and thats my weekend for ya..........My camera hasnt been working im in the process of getting it fixed tho........ight good luck to yall ..............later

thanx floridabassboy and fish chris that info helped.....I asked 2 old time fisher men thats live near me today and one said he feeds his breed and the other said he feeds his dog food.....so im gonna do both

Ive been catching them on watermelon senkos and all kinds of terminator spinner baits...also been pulling in big fish on blue and black jig-n-pigs.

Well I was on my boat fishing when I looked over and saw the biggest bass I had ever seen floating on the surface flopping around and I looked closer and it had the biggest bluegill I had ever seen half way down his mouth.......I drove over thier hoping to get them both out of the water and get a picture but rite when I got thier the bluegill must have made it down his throat because the bass went under ;D

I was watching this fishing show yesterday and this guy got hucked by his partner in the heard and it went all the way in....then the other guy got a peice of thick line put it under the hook and pull a certin way and it came out...it was pretty gross .........I personally have never gottin hucked

HEY!!!........lol....I wont lie.....it dont take much to make me cold ;D

Id get a couple packs of watermelon senkos... 3 or 4 terminator spinner baits....couple jig-n-pigs.......just get stuff to prepare for winter..............I moved out of fort myers over the summer...before I knew I was moving I applyed for the bp in fort myers and got a job interview but ended up moveing...o well.....if thats the one your going to tell me how it is

I have an acre pond...I use to feed the bluegills ever once in awhile.....but should I start feeding them everyday so the get bigger and then my bass eat them and get bigger.....if so what should I feed em? thanx

Does anyone know how often minnows make new minnows? just curious becasue my ponds running really low on them :)thanx

Dang I would die to have ride with them........its ok one day people will be saying that to ride with me............lol ;D well i wish

Well me personaly have never been really big on crankbaits...I bought about 8 not long ago and have caught 3 or 4 fish..its starting to cool down now in Florida with the ocasional cold front here and thier..should a crankbait be a bait of choice rite now? :)thanx

Well I love fishing Okeechobee and im a Florida Cracker........plain and simple

Well I usually fish a local lake that gets down to 25 ft. And I fish the kissimmiee river witch can get down also to 25 ft and besides that i fish very shallow...too shallow for a fish finder....but winters around the corner and I need to get a fish finder so I can start fishing deep....what would you suggest? thanx

I use to have my own fishing journal that I made myself but lost it...is thier anywere on the internet thats sells journals just for bass fishing or fishing in general? thanx

We just got out of a cold front where im at and I had luck with a blue and black Jig-N-Pig today. I threw it in about 5 feet of water on a submerged tree and bounced it once and slowly it swam of with it. It was a 5.3 pound bass. I also caught one on a spinner bait worked much slower than usual, and my most productive bait has been a watermelon colored senko. My buddy caught one on a crankbait just an hour ago rite after sun set ........so thats whats been going for me.....good luck

I wish I had smallmoutj down here....I hear thier a fighter :-/

I did not fish this much this year......I fished alot over the summer and got my PB....8.5.......but I just got back into fishing agian.....so I still have 2 months left and I fell I can still get a PB
