  1. I do like 90% of my fishing in the afternoons after work from around 4-8. The time change always sucks for me. Since I took this season off from my flag football league I have my Saturdays cleared up so we need to get out and fish more. Dave needs to get us on some hogs.
  2. You can and will catch big fish even in the colder months here. It just takes a bit more work. Really December and January are the only months I'd call slow here. November and Feb. are on fire usually. Daylight savings time is gonna kill me more than the weather. No more after work fishing for me really.
  3. Here in FL it seems like any body of water that has had water in it for more than a year or so has bass. I've caught 5lb fish out of ponds and ditches that look like giant mud puddles.
  4. Fish were crazy active again today but I couldn't get anything big enough to cull some fish. My buddy did get a 6lber though and I missed something big. I also snagged a tree on the backswing of my cast and got a birdnet from hell. Had to cut out $15 worth of suffix 832. As i'm cutting my line out trying to fix it my buddy lands the 6lber.
  5. They just didn't want to commit to eating it. I've had that happen a lot. Could be because of the really cool weather the last couple of nights, they aren't as aggressive. When that happens I'll usually follow up with a slow worm and get the fish.
  6. This weather up here has the fish going nuts. Just fished the pond by my house and got 10 fish in about 15 minutes of fishing. Massive schools of bass just crushing everything in the water. Gonna go to my big fish spot tomorrow and hopefully have similar luck. I need to get back in the top 5.
  7. Man I haven't haven't done anything is a while. I need to get on some fish so I can get back in the top 5.
  8. Caught a few dinks on the ol U-Vibe worm. Pretty slow day for me.
  9. Nice, been waiting for these.
  10. Bluebird skies and no wind at all. Today is gonna be a tough day. Anybody from the Jax area know any good spots in Maclenny or Baldwin? I just started my new job out here and I've been on the lookout for spots.
  11. I fished today. Caught a dink on a spinnerbait but that's about it.
  12. I have a 7'1 MF *** that I use to throw weightless and light t-rigged plastics. It's easily my favorite rod.
  13. I've caught fish on them using the rage rig on the top and slow fishing it on the bottom. It's a really versatile bait.
  14. Absolutely crushed them on spinnerbaits today. Must have caught 15 fish between 12-18 inches. 18" 17.5, 17 3/4, 18? Not sure where to count this one 18" Should put me around 91 or 91.5
  15. Nice catches. I've got some work to do tomorrow. Gonna go out early in the AM. Not sure where yet though.
  16. Haha nope. I'm waaayyy out on the westside near Whitehouse and a few miles from Baldwin.
  17. You can get brand new Speed Spools for $75-80 on Ebay from good reliable sellers. Can't beat that for the price.
  18. I like my Veritas. I recently picked up one of the *** *** Blacks and I like it a lot more though. It is an awesome rod for $100. As far as Veritas breaking I've beat the hell out of mine and it's still holding up fine. I know others have had bad luck though.
  19. I wanted to get some Sniper on sale, sucks that it's not part of it this year. I got some of the Super FC last year and didn't like it much.
  20. 20.5 Got it on a Tequila Sunrise Power Worm with a 1/8oz tungsten weight. Wanted to try something today I haven't used in a while. Caught some others on a speed worm but none were worth snapping picks of. Fish seemed really active though, they were nailing baitfish on the surface and around the banks.
  21. My best spot is at a closed down golf course and the grass in some spots is taller than me. Freaks me out walking through that stuff knowing those things are there lol
  22. It was a water moccasin, a big one. I killed it with a stick, mainly because it had one of my frog hooks stuck in it. I also don't mind one less of those where I bank fish. I will leave any other kind of snake alone. I really hate those though. I have a few bad experiences with them.
  23. I like it! We'd all be competing against each other still but it would also add a team aspect to the whole thing.
