Titans hired former 49ers DC Robert Saleh as their new head coach.

Same here. As I get older, I don't like the cold. I'm not a fan of winter.

Sorry Bears fans. I thought they were going to pull it off. Called it.

And another thing about the NFC West is...

Great pics and a lot of fish for the dead-of-winter! I didn't know you had water that clear.

Think jerkbaits only work in the spring? Think again! This video explains why jerkbaits catch bass all year long — and how to pick the right colors, sizes, and diving depths for any season. Learn when to throw muted, chrome, or translucent finishes, how to fine-tune your retrieve cadence, and which rods, reels, and line setups keep those treble hooks pinned. Master the jerkbait game and trigger more strikes no matter the season.

FYI, since most of you haven't been following the Hawks, remember the Seahawks Superbowl winning defense called themselves "The Legion Of Boom"? Well, they've been replaced. The #1 defense in the NFL is now called "The Dark Side", and they're stronger than their infamous predecessors - which is a scary thought. You might as well get used to the name. You're going to be hearing it for a while. The Seahawks scored enough points in the first 13 seconds to beat the 49r's. They didn't need a single offensive snap. The Dark Side hasn't had a single touchdown against them in 12 consecutive quarters. Rams? Bears? It doesn't matter. Bring it. btw, the Bills got robbed by the refs. They're the better team and should've won.

I think the PI call against the Bills was flat out wrong. Listening to these commentators during the Hawks game, Brady sounds awestruck. Sorry Niners....

New Article!! Winter bass fishing can be excellent. Learn where bass hold, which lures work best, and when bites happen in cold water. https://www.bassresource.com/fishing/winter-fishing-bass-easy.html

The main characteristic of braid is that it doesn't stretch. That can be an asset or a liability, depending on how you use it. Crankbaits have treble hooks, which, by design, have small bites, small hooks, and average strength. With hooks like that, you need a rod/reel/line combination that gives and absorbs the fight of the fish, which keeps them pinned. They must work in concert, or you risk losing fish. The bigger the fish, the greater the risk. Any part of that combination that doesn't give allows the fish to use it as leverage to rip the hooks free. Fluorocarbon has some stretch, allowing it to give under pressure, which is perfect for crankbait fishing. Therefore, I use straight 10-12lb fluorocarbon for crankbait fishing.

Man what a great thread to revive! Thank you @Swamp Girl !! I tried to come up with one story to add, but man, there are SO MANY! From fishing with Hank Parker for 3 days, to taking disabled kids fishing, fishing with many pros, all the Bassresource roadtrips (Kentucky lake, Pickwick, Guntersville, Lake Fork, and other bucket list lakes), fishing Lake Toho with my wife on our honeymoon, to fishing out of a SeaDoo on Stickmarsh 13, and MANY others....there's just too many to list! Any time on the water is a good story, no matter what!

Now that's clever!

Glad to hear it! command+enter though? It's better if you use your mouse to click the green button to post or, if you don't like using the mouse, you can use the tab button to highlight the green button, and then click enter. In addition - and I cannot say this enough to everyone - as soon as you think something is wrong with the forums, assume it's something with your system. An outdated browser, anti-virus software, VPN, cache, and a host of other things on your local device.

Let us know how it goes!

The 7-Year Limited Warranty is here until March 31st.

You might want to look into Western Bass Club. They're based in the Auburn/Renton area and area fun group.

Sometimes, when the water is dingy or muddy I'll try rattles to see if that makes a difference.

Winter and jigs are a perfect match — and this video breaks down exactly which jig heads, colors, skirts, trailers, and modifications catch the most bass in cold water. Whether you're fishing rocks, sparse grass, deep structure, or winter weedlines, the right jig setup can make a massive difference.

Well, thank you. I appreciate that. But I misdiagnosed this one initially. Sorry about that guys.

Problem solved. It was the over-sized rectangular ads pushing the dropdown menus to the far right of the screen -- so far out that you couldn't see them unless you scrolled over. For some reason, those ads aren't resizing for smaller screens like they should, so I disabled them for now.

I didn't change a thing, and as I research this, it's looking more and more like a cache issue and/or outdated browser problem. There are so many different combinations of mobile OS/Browsers that I cannot offer assistance. If y'all think you cleared your cache, and are still having problems, you probably have a few more steps to perform, or need to update your browser. I highly recommend searching YouTube and watch a few videos for your particular configuration about fully clearing cache and/or updating your browser as I cannot offer any help.

@Jar11591 Hit Ctrl+R when you're on the page where you click to login, then login. Yep, ads aren't resizing. I know. It's a low priority bug. Thing is, I have a life outside of these forums, so I'm not spending all my time hunting down minor visual/design/layout issues. I'll get to them eventually.

I'm looking into it.
