WOW!! Just beautiful! Where is this, may I ask?

Kent, I hope you are there as well! Who else is gonna take my pic? LOL Jeff

Went fishing this a.m. with my normal Sunday fishing buddy. After breakfast, we headed to the pond, and we both had decided to try something a little different. I was throwing a Cavitron buzzbait, and he was throwing a Rage Tail Thumper. After nothing at our first stop we moved down the bank and on my 2nd cast there, literally inches in front of my feet as I was standing on the bank, bam had one miss it! Shortly afterwards had another miss and then all of the shad chasing and movement died down and the pond went slick...(see picture in everything else/pic of day) Birds-nested the heck out of my buzzbait rod, so I set it down, and picked up the old fav worm! Moved over a couple spots, caught a small one, kept moving to my favorite spot, and nothing much was going on! We were talking and as I cast out, not paying much attention, had a nice hit on the initial fall of my worm and missed it....darn! Moved around to a typically hard to get to spot, but since the water is so far down, I was able to walk around and on about the 5-6th cast BAM! I slow played him(?) in thinking it could be my "big bertha" I've been chasing, but shortly after it surfaced and I saw it was just a nice one! Landed it, took a pic, and successfully released another "picture" bass! Jeff

+2. If 200 is a little high, try the Shimano Stradic FI! Thats what I currently have, and although I haven't fished it too much, I like it, and It will get put through the paces on Brown fish! Aint that right RW!!

Pic from this a.m. from my pocket camera I take with me fishing........

Thanks alot bud!

Well thats awesome! ALL of my shots are straight out of the camera and uploaded to photobucket to link from! Jeff

can you post a picture of the rods in there without the strap on, so I can see for myself? Also can you give me the length measurements so I can make sure they will mount on the side of my jon. Jeff

I'm a dummy when it comes to all of that! I'm really new at all of this camera stuff but love it! Wish there was a program for just auto correct for dummies like me! Just got my first decent camers (rebel eos) in Jan! Jeff

Good review and something I might consider but i have a ? Will the rods stay in the holders without the strap, like say you are fishing and changing rods, do you have to restrap each time, or will they hold without strap at least until you fire up the motor? Jeff

ya'lls shots are just so clean! I REALLY need to learn how to use a program to clean up my photos!

Look back at New Orleans at sunset...

ok just checking cause you said 370, which is full blown retail! Jeff

crank, check ebay! reelseller sells them for 305 tyd! Jeff

After throwing the rage hog Tues morning, I tried a black Cavitron buzz bait with no luck! Jeff

Im gonna think so... last week Locker went 4-20 and something like 2 ints! Mallett is on fire, and if he wins this week against Alabama, I think he could aslo win the Heisman! Jeff

Its not my spot to share the info, but the person whose spot it is might chime in! Sorry not to sound like a brat, but I promised not to tell, in order to get to fish there! Jeff

Im gonna guess infrared!

One day when we had a freeze earlier this year!

I use mine for worm/jig! Cause that's what I throw most! You do realize that 100 yrds is the length of a football field right? Unless you have to cut a birds nest out, you don't need that much line for bass fishing! Jeff

couldn't get her to bite this am >

Whoever it is will be getting Ryan Mallett of Arkansas!

awesome shots Nate! Beach in Barbados! Can you tell my fav time to shoot is on Vacation! LOL

Ok so I met up with Road Warrior again for our normal Sunday fishing trips! We decided to try a different spot than we have ever fished before and after about an hour and only one dink we decided to jump in the truck and head to a different pond! A little Sunday morning pond hopping! We decided to split off and fish different banks. First cast to where Kent said he hadn't caught a fish all year and Bam, bout a 1-1.5 lber.(my fav worm) Nice start, but we wanted bigger! After fishing down his entire bank and catching a nice 4lber(megastrike mega-bug), Kent fished his way back around towards me where I hadn't had another bite, but was furiously fishing "the hole" where Kent had landed a 5lber and a 7-8lber earlier in the week! I had switched off to a Rage Tail Rage Hog Summercraw. About 10 more mins, as Kent and I were talking BAM, there she was my PB on the end of my line. She surfaces for us to realize it WAS her!!!!!! Kent reels in and sets his pole down to help me land her, but at that instant, my hook comes dislodged and flying back at me! GRRR! I slam my rod into the ground like an idiot, and then put my hook back in the Rage Hog and threw back in! Kent responds with a, "You usually only get one shot at a fish that size!" We fish a couple more casts, and Kent throws his lure into the hole as we chat some more! About 4 casts later, bam I set the hook, and the fish flashes for me to realize its not her, but a nice fish nonetheless. Just as had happened before, here comes my hook/lure shooting back at me! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! I ask Kent, "what the HE**?" He says check your hook! I lightly set it onto my thumb nail, which it proceeded to puncture with no problem? HMM, maybe just not getting good bites, or????? So about 2 casts later Bam, and I land what I think was the second fish that struck and I missed, about a 4.5-5lber(Kent agreeds)! Pic doesn't do justice to the size as I was holding her at an angle not to see her belly! Needless to say, I will be fishing for that fish until I catch her, everyday for the next.........GRRRR!! I had dreams about her last night.....
