  1. 1/16 ounce rooster tails, and 2" swim baits are what I usually use.
  2. Good going! Those are some nice looking fish.
  3. I like the BPS Stik-o in the 3" size. I t-rig it with a 1/0 EWG hook. When I get out on the lake I look for a weeds with a deep hole in the middle, drop the bait in, and let it sink.
  4. My best day of fishing was about 4 years ago. I took my daughter out bluegill fishing on a local subdivision lake. She had my old kiddie pole and I had my ultralight rig. My bait never got wet. Between taking pictures, helping to bait hooks, and taking bluegill off of the hook the time flew by. She caught around 50 in 2-1/2 hours.
  5. Favorite place to fish is down in the Missouri Ozarks. You have multiple lakes down there that are only a couple of hours away from each other. Eastern Missouri, especially around St. Louis is very tough. These lakes and ponds have very heavy fishing pressure.
  6. I don't have anything playing while fishing. I like to hear when the fish jump.
  7. Maybe Creve Coeur lake? Don't know about ice though.
  8. Welcome Aboard!
  9. I am still using 7 on mine. The only time I change the OS is when I get a new computer.
  10. Nope. I have had mine on for years.
  11. Super chunk Jr., Netbaits tiny paca chunk, or a 4" finesse worm.
  12. I had to double check this one. It was a tie between a Rebel Pop-R, and a 1/8 ounce jig and craw.
  13. Those are some nice looking spots!
  14. That's cool, I don't see many people using Jitterbugs anymore. I guess that's why I have luck with them.
  15. Good Luck on the new job!
  16. I never use a weight with a fluke either. What I have started doing is inserting the EWG hook through the nose, but then I bring the point out on an angle so the fluke kind of lays on its side. It gives the bait a little more action.
  17. Welcome aboard!
  18. Going to go old school here and say Virgil Ward. When I was young, I use to watch him on TV after we got home from church.
  19. I have to go with the Panthers.
  20. Probably on a bladed jig, or a spinnerbait. Then again you never know.
  21. Bassmaster and In Fisherman.
  22. I'll believe it when it happens.
  23. I carry three rods, and a small hard tackle box. Walking through woods, and climbing over fallen trees I don't have to worry about the box getting smashed or banged around.
  24. What did the owner do with the cover? Did he pile it off to the side on the shore, or move it out farther into the lake?
