Becoming a Professional Bass angler...is fishing talent enough??
its was my dream for many years to become a pro-bass fisherman. but honestly i think alot of it now inst bout fishing any more. its more about images and such. i mean it really disappoints me. i still love tourney fishin, but i dont think if you have the finances or the backing its gonna be very hard. i mean i work full time, and there's no way i regular employer would let you off to fish every single tourney. and that's what you need to do to get that end of year weight and standings. its a really hard thing to do and you are doing it right now you should feel really blessed. good luck and see ya out on the water.

Jon Boat For Big Guys
thats a nice boat micro, see fellas i have a 20 ft bass boat, but its been sitting since my father passed. iam going to bring it home soon and try to fix it up. but my little truck barely pulls. yea i do want one of those tracker boats but my funds arent really allowing me do get one. maybe if i find for a steal i might have to go get me a loan for one. iam just worried bout getting a jon boat cause we had a john boat before and i took it for its maiden voyage and the weight balence was completely off, i was in the back and the front was almost sticking straight up. thanks for the advice felllas.

Solo or group fishing -- your preference
I like fishing in groups its alot more funner. but when i trying to learn how to fish a new bait or a new pattern, i prefer to go alone. my buds don't have a whole lot of patience. i rember when i tried learning how to jig fish real good, i had to force my self to go to the lake by myself with nothing but my rod and jig box haha.

Jon Boat For Big Guys
Ive been looking into getting a jon boat and adding a lower deck, but the thing is iam a really hefty dude close to 330 pounds and my fishing partner is about 250. would a jon boat be an ok fishing boat for us ? evan after adding all our gear and a small deck ? . i do want a little stability also. another thing to consider is my truck is an s10 with a 2.2 v4 it cant pull my bass boat. any advice would be helpful fellas.

recovering my passion.
Hello my name is Brian. ive been really impressed with these boards so far, i decided i would join up. ive been fishing since i can remeber. its my passion in life. bass fishing is what me and my father loved doing. i mean we breathed it lol. but see he died back in 2006, but one of the last things he asked me was to promise him that i would never quit fishing and hunting. i went fishing a couple of times, but ere time i would go i would get heart broken. til one day about 2 weeks ago i finally went and got hooked again. ha ha. fishing has giving me the best memories i have ever had, from tourney fishing in a old ski boat that me and dad made into a bass boat. a couple of months before he died we bought a 1994 javelin 20ft bass boat with 150 johnson. when he died i didnt know how i was going to be able to pay for the boat because i take care of my deaf mother too, but then i found out my dad put insurance on it for me, and it paid it off for me and plus it got me a check for ere thing i already paid for the boat. so basically i got me a free boat. i believe it was my dads gift he left me. the boats been sitting for 3 years so iam looking foward to giving it some much needed tlc. sorry about rambling on but i thought that this is a really cool story to share with you good folks. i look forward in talking with ya. see ya on the water.
