It saddens me to inform you that Roger, a.k.a. @RoLo has passed away. RoLo was a long-standing member here - one of the originals - and a frequent contributor (over 9,000 posts!). His last post may have been a few years ago, but he visited here just two weeks ago. Always keeping in touch. R.I.P. Roger. We will miss you.

This is just sad.

UPDATE: 3 people died and 3 others were injured in the accident. ALEA said Joey M. Broom, 58, from Altoona, “was fatally injured when the Center Console vessel he was onboard was struck by a Nitro Bass Boat. Broom was pronounced deceased at the scene.” Later Wednesday, ALEA named two other men aboard the same boat who had been thrown overboard during the crash and drowned. It identified them as John K. Clark, 44, of Cullman and Jeffrey C. Little, 62, of Brandon, Miss. “The crash occurred near the Miller Flats area of Smith Lake in Cullman County,” ALEA said in a statement. The ALEA’s Marine Patrol Division is investigating the crash, the agency said. Neither the ALEA nor MLF provided information on the circumstances of the crash or the conditions of those who were injured. MLF said that competitor Flint Davis was also involved in the crash. Davis issued a short statement on Instagram Wednesday. “I want to thank everyone for the thoughts and prayers. I ask that you keep me and all of the other affected people and families in your prayers. I’ll let you guys know more when I can,” the angler said.

MLF has officially cancelled the tournament. https://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_123/mlf-lewis-41625.html

Reports are saying the MLF accident involved Flint Davis. Here is Flint's boat

What is this "backlash" you speak about?

More information will be disclosed as it becomes available. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At approximately 7:30 a.m. ET, emergency personnel responded to a boating accident on Lake Norman involving two vessels, including one operated by National Professional Fishing League angler Jessie Ayers of Antlers, Oklahoma.

Yes, I'm aware of the issues. Yes, we're working on it. It's a pesky, elusive issue, so please be patient. No, there's no BR App in the Play Store. In fact, there's no BR app to download. So don't download anything.

Springtime bass fishing can be incredibly productive, and if you want to maximize your success without overcomplicating things, try these four easy-to-use baits that are simple to cast and retrieve yet highly effective.

R18 is similar to Tatsu in that both products are Double Structure Fluorocarbon and both are built for use as a mainline. So they share properties with all Seaguar's DSF items which is that they are soft and very manageable on reels yet provide excellent strength and abrasion resistance. R18 is a JDM item and was made for Japanese anglers who are fishing very pressured waters and are looking for any edge to help them catch more fish. R18 comes in a much more fine-tuned size range from 4-20 lbs and includes some unique, nontraditional sizes: 5, 7, and 14 lb. Test. This allows anglers to really dial in the depths at which baits run - so presentations can be tailored to have baits run higher or lower in the water column. Also R18 is on a 100 meter (109 yard) spool.

You will be missed. Cancer sucks.

I use 50lb Smackdown exclusively for pitching in heavy cover and timber. I've pulled fish up to 7lbs out of the thick stuff with it. I pulled this 7lbr out of a pile of floating timber over thick weeds. So yes, it's strong.

This topic is circling the drain. Some of you question why we close these things down "early". It's because we've seen this dozens of times over, and know where it's headed. And it ain't pretty. Aaaand scene....

John Crews shares his favorite April baits for catching bass. This month is awesome for bass fishing, whether you’re on a lake, river, pond, or reservoir. Fish are in pre-spawn, spawn, or post-spawn phases, which means they’re shallow and ready to bite!
