There is no silver bullet.

Time for little river fishing in the heat of summer!

The only study regarding bass predation on salmon showed for 10 months of the year, salmon smolt comprised less than 2% of a bass' diet. The other 2 months? 5%. So....their own study showed negligible impact to salmon. There have been no other studies. Certainly none that prove bass predation on salmon has ANY impact. None. Nada. Zero. Zip. So the ordinance to wipe out bass in the Columbia is absolutely 100% political, designed to appease "save the salmon" folks and show them that "something" is being done. Total smokescreen at the expense of bass, walleye, and catfish. Btw, the same people that say "save the salmon" are anglers, tribal members, and commercial fishermen that kill salmon. If they really wanted to "save the salmon", then they need to stop fishing for them! Derrrrrrr. That's all I'm going to say about that.

Really depends on your needs. A new combo would be a fantastic idea...but not for me. I have rods/reels in my garage I don't even remember using or having. LOL But if you're in need of a new combo, then it's absolutely the right thing to do. Other items? I'd go with the "always need this" kinda stuff. You know, the things that eat up your budget but you need them in order to fish? Things like line, hooks, weights and other terminal tackle (or oil like Clayton suggested). Get those knocked out, and it will free up your budget for the fun stuff.

Wait till Monday's video. They're pulling A LOT of water right now. I mean...A LOT. Unusual for this time of year. If they get back to normal soon, next month it will seem like a lake.

Thanks for watching!

As we head into the Dog Days of Summer, the bite can sometimes be tough. Here's how to keep catching them!

Cheap solution: seal the rivets with Sikaflex 292 More involved solution: drill out the rivets and replace. Be sure to coat the rivets in sealant to ensure a permanent water-tight rivet. When I had an aluminum boat, It leaked so bad the bilge pump was constantly on. I went with option #2. Replaced 27 rivets. No problems after that.

So I attended an ICAST conference today with Kevin VanDam and the product managers at Plano, and asked them if they had any plans to make such a box. And frankly, they hadn't thought of it before. This was news to them, and a great idea. It was well-received, and they're going to look into it further. So who knows? If they come out with it, it's because you man!

Hey guys, If you're deciding what to bring on your next fishing trip, this video will help. Here are my top 7 lures for summer bass fishing:

Enough! Several warnings handed out on this one. Guys...it's fishing. It's supposed to be fun. Get off the keyboard and go fishing.

That's demonstrated in my video, already referenced in this thread.

In the Edge series, they are introducing the 3500, 3600 terminal, and Flex series (3600 & 3700), plus Edge terminal retainers for 3500, 3600, and 3700 thin. In addition, they also have the Rustrictor series at a lower price point than the Edge series, but still have the rust inhibitor characteristics.

Quite a bit of information packed into this article: https://www.bassresource.com/fishing/mayflies-bass.html

Yes, the industry has been hit by a double-whammy. 1. Supply chain issues. From manufactures to shipping to retail, everything is strained due to shutdowns and lower capacities. 2. With a major lack of options, people are flocking to the lakes and rivers in record numbers in search of something to do. There's an unprecedented demand for fishing, with many popular destinations getting record crowds each and every weekend. As a result, all fishing gear is under intense demand. It's often difficult to find the gear you want.

Plano EDGE is the best fishing investment we've made in a long time. We've tried a few competitors, but this is what we'll be purchasing from now on! https://www.planomolding.com/fishing/fish-series/edge-series

Hey guys, thought I'd put together a video that expels common fallacies about bass fishing. Enjoy!
