Winter 2020-2021
Winter finally got here this past weekend. Lows in the teens the rest of the week, and single digits by this coming weekend. The highs won't get past the freezing mark. Only good thing is that we really haven't had a lot of snow.

Cotton Cordell Bait Question/Identification
Maybe the factory got the wrong bait in the wrong package.
-
What is your favorite?
Super chunk, and super chunk jr. I fish some water that sees pretty much pressure. Those smaller profiles seem to do the trick.

You ever just undress and dive for your lost lure?
One time I was casting with a 2 piece rod and the top half went in the lake. I swam after that because the end was bobbing around on the surface. Wouldn't do that for a lure.
-
Is it good for the rod to lift the fish?
If the bass is a dink then I lift it with the rod. If the bass is big enough to pull drag then I lip it while it's in the water.
-
Which knob style do you generally prefer on a spinning reel?
I have used both types. Really makes no difference to me.

Making Crankbait Selection Easier
I fish from the bank a lot so I have my shallow running crankbaits in one box, and my mid-depth crankbaits in another box. I don't have a lot of hard baits that dive below 10'.
-
Does red colored lures work in ponds?
Yes, and so does orange.

I fished the ned rig for one or two seasons when it first became popular. Since then I haven't fished it at all.

Night fishing
One night about 15 or so years ago we were letting the breeze push the boat. We were maybe 20 feet from the bank. We just stopped moving. It didn't feel like we rode up on top of anything, or hit anything. Started the trolling motor on low to back up or turn the boat, but we didn't move. Finally we started to reach under the boat with paddles to see what was going on. After about 2 minutes we started drifting again.
