That's one special mount, and she did a good job too.

I didn't read all of the responses, but how about a stinger jig. That hook reminds me of a scorpion's stinger.

Good going! You never get tired of fishing frogs.

Down at Lake of the Ozarks about 35 years ago. I caught a 4-3/4, 4-1/2, and a 3-1/2 pounder in about 15 minutes using a Rebel crankbait.

Practice a lot. Don't try for distance at first. Learn to be accurate.

Sorry to hear about your Mom. Getting laid off stinks. Nice vids.

I usually just let them sink. If the bait doesn't get hit on the way down, I start working the bait like it was weighted. Just slower.

When I am fishing a soft plastic it will either be on a t-rig, or weightless. The only plastics I fish weightless will be a Super Fluke or a Senko, everything else gets a weight.

WTG, Good Job!

Topwater early in the AM, and then when the sunlight hits the water switch baits. I would find the deepest part of the lake and use a jig and craw on the bottom.

It counts!

I caught a tiger muskie years ago, but nothing like that one! That is one great fish!

Nice bass!

Good going! Congrats!

Welcome to the forums!

No.

X2. I have one for weightless plastics, and one for finesse type crankbaits.

You caught some nice bass!

I probably could have ducked into a cove and pulled the boat up on the shore, but there is a lot of weeds growing in the shallows of that lake. I didn't want to get the prop tangled and be dead the water having to clean off the weeds with lightning around.

I would ask it where the double digit bass are and what do they like to eat.

Thanks for the video! Some good info right there.

Yesterday it was very cloudy, and on the way to the lake I thought I saw lightning off in the distance. I got out on the water about 5:45 AM, but I didn't like the look of the sky so I stayed pretty close to the boat ramp just in case. About 3 hours later you could here the thunder and the sky started going all dark purple, so I put on my rain suit and headed back to the boat ramp. About 30 min later it started pouring down rain and everyone was getting off of the water. Couldn't see the lightning, but it was thundering pretty loud. I sat in the car for about an hour when the rain slowed up to a drizzle and you couldn't hear thunder any longer. The sky was starting to get lighter so I went back down to the boat. By the time I got back on the water the rain had pretty much stopped, and it was just cloudy. I'm out on the water for 30 to 45 minutes, just caught a bass and was putting it back in the water, when there is a very bright flash of lightning up in the sky right over my head. The thunder sounded like a jet engine, and it got dark in like 30 seconds. I headed back to the ramp, but it was raining so hard you could only see about 100 ft. or so across the water. Finally got to the ramp and got back in the car. This storm lasted mayber 30 minutes, but when it stopped, I packed everything up and called it a day.

Nice going!
