Here's a closer look at that small rocky point. I am actually standing in what would be about 10 ft. of water.

Here's a nice rock point with a shelf. The rock point extends down to about 10 ft deep and then there is a flat shelf. Then another small bare point that extends down into the channel to 25+ ft deep. (not really able to see in the pic)

Here's a long main lake point. (on the other side of the lake). Too bad it's pretty bare. Hopefully they will plant some vegetation on it or soemthing.

Here's the second foot bridge. It's really hard to see. All you can really see is the top of it. This one is right on the channel and is probably closer to 20 ft down.

Here's a one of a couple footbridges I found. This would probably be in about 10 feet of water. It's not shown but there is a big flat just to the left of this pic with the channel running in front of that.

Here's a fishing dock that the creek channel swings pretty close to. Also notice the nice rocky point in the background.

They just drained a local lake that I used to fish to repair the dam. I haven't been out there in the last couple years though because the fishing had gone way down hill. So hopefully when they fill it back up the fishing will improve over the next few years. I found some honey holes, but I was really suprsied at just how bare most of the bottom of the lake was. So here's a bunch of pics I took. So for the first one: This is just a view near the dam.

Sounds like a great honor for a great guy.

LOL, Agreed. Jerry McKinnis and Strike Zone are the worst shows out there IMO, in that order.

Ditto. If it's a world record though, that baby is mine. She probably wouldn't live after all the stress it would have to go through to get certified and all the stuff anyways.

From what I have read on other message boards and around the net the 320 and 480 are the best bang for your buck out there. I am looking out for a good deal on one.

Mark them with something during the day. My dad has a friend that has a fairly descent size pond in his back yard. He puts bobbers with reflective tape on them with a big 1 oz weight tied to a long enough line to reach the bottom. All you have to do is scan the area with a light and those things will stick out like a sore thumb. I have never done it myself, but supposedly it works. Don't see why it wouldn't.

I think the current world record is both a joke and great all in the one. If you think about it, it's what are sport is all about ........ fish stories. For those trophy hunters it's got to be like chasing a ghost. It's both cool and BS all in one. BTW - Does anybody have any stats on the biggest bass caught in GA beside the record? Any 20+? Just curious.

What could he possibly say to make things better. He's done in my book. What a pitiful outdoorsman or sportsman.

In most cases that is very true. There is NOTHING he can say to warrant his actions. Like LBH , "I didn't know", ain't going to cut it this time. You figure an experienced hunter as himself should know something was up. I have never been hunting a day in my life, but I know it's not the norm for many deer just to be wandering around below your tree stand running around like chickens with their heads cut off. BTW - Great video Ken

It's kind of funny because they say red is a sign of weakness in the wild. Well I swear a few Smallies that I have caught that had reddish eyes have been the meanest SOB's around.

Something else just came to mind. I don't know if it's the intro to his show or a whole show in itself, but I vividly remember the words "The deer started running right at me" coming out of his mouth. Could this not be the only time? Did that deer run right at him because he was caged??????

Have you read Ike's book? He says that kind of stuff goes on all the time.

WOW!!!!! I would love to hear Jimmy's explanation of that one. Did this happen recently?? I think he was suppose to speak at the Bassmaster U in KC this weekend, but I don't think he showed up. Someone that was there can correct me if I'm wrong. It's too bad too. I actually liked his show even though you didn't learn a whole lot about fishing. He "was" very entertaining. Now I can never look at him the same way. If his show is on I will just keep on going.

OOPS ...... I forgot to add that. BIG BAITS + FISHED REAL SLOW = BIG BASS ........

Remember the old saying BIG BAITS = BIG BASS If I were you and really set on catching an 8+, I would super size my baits. You have to go in with the right mind set though. Your probably not going to catch many bass, but your odds of catching a new PB go way up. Go big or go home ......

to clear up any confusion, Canadian Tire is like the Canadian version of WalMart. They have a bit of everything. I have no idea why it has the name. Just like Wal-Mat. They don't even sell walls to my knowledge. ;D

That's awesome man!! I haven't been able to go the past two years. I will definetly be there next year.

It's true what they say...... So many baits, so little time

Duh??/Just should have looked at your name ...... ahhhhh yes the "Fluke" If I had to take a 4th rod, it would be the Fluke ..... lol. And come to think about it, your the one that pointed out that they were spotlighting the SpotRemover on Fishing University a few weeks back. The bait monkey and I thank you. That type of fishing is fairly new to me, but I am confident I will be able to hammer em' on tough days this year. So yeah, now that I think about it ..... I knew that.
