When offshore fishing, I like to mark a hump with one buoy at the base of one side and one at the base of the other. That way I know the top of the hump is somewhere in between those two and pick it apart thoroughly. If I am fishing a ledge, I like to drop the buoy right on the edge. Then cast to the shallower part and see if the fish are feeding in that direction, and if not, switch to casting deep and bringing it up. At my club lake, I pretty much know where everything is based on the "land markers" I have established, but sometimes will drop a buoy near an underwater stump or downed tree to back off and fish it. Many times I will motor over a spot and drop a buoy, then come back 30+ minuets later to fish it. Jeff

Welcome from a fellow Memphian! Jeff

I'm trying for it! It was my goal this year, and I am doing everything possible to do it! I have been stuck on my pb of 8lb 9oz for a year and a half. Which is a long time seeing I fish at least twice a week! Jeff

I have caught some nice ones on cbd20 but they are expensive to lose! And I dont deep crank to much, so I dont have a ton of them, maybe 6. Jeff

If anyone wants to mail me a go-pro, I will set it up! If not you are sure to get lots of pictures and a full detailed report when I get back. Jeff

Your on a roll......keep em coming! Jeff

My dad used to use them alot back in the day! That and a black worm with blue tail. All zoom Jeff

I am supposed to be headed down there shortly, and will let you guys know how it goes. I also read that all of these fish were weighed on a scale and documented. The guy even gave his phone number out to non believers for actual proof. The owner of the lodge said it is the best fishing he has ever seen right now. Those numbers did come on the full moon, and are not 100% typical, but I would say your chances of catching a 10+ would be best there! Jeff

Lake level is on the rise June fishing producing some giants Baits: spinnerbaits, and crankbaits starting 5" and 6" swimbaits in Pearl, White and Mullett color, topwater ( Zara Spooks ) Date / Time Fished: July 2012 07/06/2012 Here is the revised report. Post trip report from Bill Doll. Fishing was un-believably good with p.m. rain about every day. South end of the lake and other bays are clear or slightly stained, but still good water. Deep diving crankbaits and spinnerbaits were the producing lures. Seventeen over 10, twenty four over 11, twelve over 12, three over 13 for (56) total. Fishing report for Lake Baccarac in Mexico! These are all caught on artificials, no live bait. Absolutley crazy. I would say this is your #1 place right now for a 10 lber. Jeff

They went to a college frat party fish fry! I was told it was a big hit! Jeff

I carry a glock also! I haven't had it long enough to say it will last FOREVER, but I suspect it might! Shimano stradic ci4 2500 - without a doubt the best bang for your buck in a spinning reel on the market! Jeff

I CARRY MY GUN EVERYWHERE! That being said, I live in Memphis, and work in a liquor store! I took my carry permit before even turning 21, and had my permit and my gun the day I turned 21. I do carry concealed, always! Jeff http://www.neighborhoodscout.com/tn/memphis/nonconnah-pky-quince/#crime

Get the absolute most sensitive rod you can afford for anything bottom bouncing! Jeff

Congrats on the fish, and good job releasing it! Next time it might be that 10lber!!! Jeff

I have caught 3 cafish this year on plastics! And then 2 more this past Suday on hair jigs! Jeff

That is probably a bass that Big-O set the hook on when it was a dink. LOL Yes I have seen em like that, but that dude has a big ole hump! Jeff

http://www.basspro.c...uct/23166/90182 I believe he is referring to these. And yes they work. 1. I don't use braid..... 2. shouldn't be too much line twist with a c-rig Jeff Edit*** guess I should have not opened so many tabs, so when I got to it, Gene had already answered your questions***

I have a mayfair pump, and it works everytime I hit the switch! Jff

Geez, Paul........were gonna get together here real soon. I just don't know when! Jeff

Nice catching RW! Wish I would have been there with you! Jeff

http://www.bassresou...le#entry1046043 http://www.bassresou...le#entry1044033 My personal rod is this one, and I think you would be VERY happy with it. DHC5-701SPML Medium Light/Spinning 8+Top 6-12 1/16-3/8 7’0" (1) $159.99 Jeff

Figured you would like that one! LOL Jeff

I use some automotive grit soap. Works well. BTW, what is that fish in your avatar? Jeff

Dang..........I mean Dang....... BTW, my year has been tiny fish compared to last year....... Jeff

Check with a tach to make sure you are still within safe operating RPM range. It might require a prop change and also affect your warranty if there still is one! Jeff
