Ha ha! Ya, you're right! The funny (dumb) thing is the photographer took what seemed like 4,000 pics of me (no joke: 2hrs of shooting pics), and we were just talking after we finished. I was standing like that and he said, "Oh! Stay like that! That's a great shot! Lemme grab my camera." They ended up using that shot. LOL!

I had/have the original hollow body Spook from the 90's somewhere in my garage. I tried it for awhile, but it's darn near impossible to walk the dog over weedy areas. I never got a bite on one, so I "retired" it.

Think dropshotting is just for deep water? Think again. In this video, we reveal how to use a dropshot in less than 7 feet of water to catch pressured bass around wood, docks, debris, and heavy vegetation.

The spawn is at it's peak, and the weather is lining up to be a GREAT day! I checked the DeepDive app, and it sure doesn't get much better than this! Even the peak feeding time lines up!

Yep, I got the letter. There was another member that called my personal cell phone too. Guys - you need to check the official Bassresource social channels for updates should there ever be another outage. I know some of you don't use Facebook or Instagram, so I also posted on Youtube and our Google profile. I posted updates almost every day.

I suppose you can putt well with a 9 iron if you practice enough.

It is with a very heavy heart that I share the passing of my good friend, Tony Gergely, founder of Sure-Life Laboratories. Tony passed away today after a battle with leukemia. He passed peacefully with his family by his side. Many of you may know Tony through Sure-Life, Catch and Release, Please Release Me, and the many fish-care products he developed over the years. But Tony was much more than a name on a bottle. He was a pioneer in fish care, especially in the tournament fishing world, and his work helped change the way anglers think about caring for bass before, during, and after weigh-in. His impact on our sport is hard to overstate. Long before fish care became a common topic at tournaments, Tony was already working on real solutions to help bass survive the stresses of being caught, held in livewells, weighed, and released. Countless fish have survived because of his work, and countless anglers have learned to be better stewards of the resource because of the knowledge he shared. But to me, Tony was also a friend. For more than 20 years, Tony and I had many, many long discussions that often started in the evening and lasted well past midnight. We had a lot of laughs, along with deep conversations, whether we were talking on the phone, catching up at ICAST, or spending time together at Bassmaster Classics. I will miss those conversations more than words can say. Tony was also a very close friend of Doug Hannon, “The Bass Professor.” Tony introduced me to Doug, which led to another great friendship in my life. That was one of the many things Tony did so naturally. He connected people, helped people, and opened doors without ever making a big deal about it. One memory I will always treasure is how instrumental Tony was in getting Keri and me to Texas to fish the Take A Soldier fishing tournament at Fort Hood. Tony arranged a boat, truck, tackle for us to borrow, and accommodations. Then he picked us up at the airport and drove us the three hours to Fort Hood. We all fished the tournament together and had a fantastic time. That was Tony. If he believed in something, or cared about someone, he was all in. For decades, Tony also quietly supported BassResource. He didn’t do it for attention. He didn’t do it just to sell products. He did it because he believed in what we were doing, he believed in helping anglers, and he believed in taking care of the fish we all love to catch. That was Tony. Quietly generous. Deeply knowledgeable. Passionate about fish care. Willing to help. Willing to teach. And always looking for ways to leave the sport better than he found it. My eyes are filled with tears as I write this. Losing a friend is never easy, and Tony’s passing is a tremendous loss not only to those who knew him personally, but to the entire bass fishing community. Please keep Tony’s family, friends, and everyone at Sure-Life in your thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace, my friend. Thank you for your friendship, your generosity, your knowledge, the laughter, the conversations, the memories, and the legacy you leave behind.

Absolutely nothing changed with the forum code, so I don't know what to tell you. Sounds like a problem with your phone/computuer configuration. 99% of all issues are usually a browser setting, a browser extension, ad blocker, VPN, anti-virus, an outdated browser, etc. Because there are hundreds of combinations and settings that end users have, there's absolutely no way I can be tech support for these issues. Clearing cache and cookies, then rebooting is the catch-all starting point, which corrects many common problems. Also, ensure you have the latest browser. Beyond that, I can't help. But disabling extensions, ad-blockers, VPN's and anti-virus one-by-one can potentially isolate the problem and help you figure out what to fix.

18 days - a record I hope never gets beat! I posted updates on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube as well as the forum homepage (when I was able to get it up) during the entire downtime.

Here's an image from the camera. You know how wide a bass boat is, so this gives you an idea of how wide the camera angle is. That's his covered golf cart to the right. The camera detected the vehicle moving in the upper left and snapped this photo. You can download a full high-rez HD video of each event too. https://www.vosker.com/us/en

When bass move up to spawn, they don’t just scatter randomly — they stack up in very specific places. This video breaks down four high-percentage spawning bass hotspots you can target on almost any lake or reservoir.

I was able to get out on the water today for about 4 hrs. The fish were in all 3 phases of the spawn. I caught 14 fish, almost all on the Ragebug and a couple on Senkos. I checked the DeepDive app just to see if it matched my bait selection: Uncanny!!

I use an Arbor knot and piece of tape, regardless of the holes.

I’m incredibly relieved and grateful that the site and forums are finally back up and running again. This has been an extremely stressful experience filled with long days, sleepless nights, and more anxiety than I care to relive anytime soon. This was, by far, the longest outage in the 30-year history of BassResource — and certainly not something I ever want to go through again. To make matters worse, I wasn’t even able to get out and fish during most of it, which only added to the frustration. Thankfully, I finally had the chance to spend some time on the water today with good friends, and we absolutely wrecked 'em. I landed around 20 bass in about four hours and managed to leave a lot of that stress out on the lake where it belonged. It felt incredibly good. Fishing with friends truly is one of the best stress relievers there is, and I definitely needed it. Most importantly, I want to sincerely thank all of you for your patience, encouragement, and support throughout this difficult situation. It meant more than you know, and I’m truly grateful for this community. Now let’s get back to enjoying the best bass fishing community on the internet!
