Ok everyone this year I plan on fishing winni a lot this year. I know of some good spots in wolfboro, but other than that I haven't fished it much anyone got any tips on fishing winni? I wanna fish it more

I never liked fishing Senko's. I dont know they never appealed to me, but I do know they catch fish and I have caught some good numbers of bass on them, but I just don't seem to like them

Holy F******* Smallie. Jesus I wish I could catch a Smallie like that

Had to do it. Was at the mall today and they were having a sale clearing off there old stock I guess. So I picked up some more jigs for 2 bucks marked down from 4.98 and picked up another pack of the Craws and some Spinner Baits. My friend is starting to get into fishing as well so we made him a small box. Got him 2 packs of Berkeley Power Worms some 2/0 hooks and some bullet weights, 2 Spinner Baits, Popper ,Jitterbug, Frog. Figured this is a good selection to get him in the door and I told him once he mastered and learned those techniques decently we would throw him on some jigs. Didn't get him on Senkos I know they catch fish, but I feel like if he starts catching them on senkos that's all hell wanna really learn and I wanted him to learn all the basics and then look at the next step. Also got him 2 crank baits figured that should get him going then hell know really what all other baits are based off of.

You indeed are correct Shane that's why you gotta find the hidden underwater spots which I've basically found by throwing spinnerbaits at any structure I believed to have bass off of land features that working them with Texas rigs. Which I have 2 spots on the lake that are not fished much and pretty secretive.

My Gramps always liked Jeness Pond for some reason he used to fish Northwood and Jenness like it was going out of style. My uncle on the other hand lived in Wolfboro for awhile so he fished Winni a lot, but then moved back to Northwood and fishes there all the time, but they grew up together as kids fishing and hunting so they new all the spots on Northwood better than I ever could.

Here's some others. I'll try to find some of my uncles big ones on Northwood as well I just found these right now in my dads safe

Here is some pics of my Gramps fish that he caught on Northwood. As you can see he did pretty well for back in the 1970s haha He knew Northwood like the back of his hand I still fish the same spots to this day and we produce well.

Haha I got a whole game plan this year gonna be catching the hogs your gonna be seeing me with all the 8lb bass pictures put me up in the bracket with you and Maine haha. Also Shane I have been meaning to ask how much does one of those Rage hats go for the camo ones those are some pretty dirty hats and I would love to have one haha

Well I meant Rage Craws as in jigs haha I just bought a bunch of jigs and Rage Craws. They didn;t have the stanley jigs at BPS, but I ordered them online haha

Nothing special, but these were my 2 personal best and my Great Great Great Uncles 7lb Largie from 2010 In order. 5LB 6oz- Nashua River on a T rigged Berkely Power Worm 4LB 8oz- Baboosic Lake on a Chartreuse Spinner Bait 7LB 2oz Northwood Lake on a Single tail grub rigged weightless Nothing Compared to all of you guys fish, but I feel as though I did well for my 2013 season and also I fished a ton of new places. 2014 bring on the hogs gonna be a Rage Craw, Spinner Bait, T Rigged Worm, Buzz Baits arsenal this year.

I don't think your message sent it's not popping up in my PMs

At least give me a direction man haha I googled old bass hatcheries in Northwood NH even pulled up maps and looked 5 miles within Northwood haha

My uncles had the camp for almost 30 + years now he has fished everywhere around Northwood and he knows Northwood lake like the back of his hand except a lot of new cover has been recently appearing and we recently found a sunken island small randomly in the lake. This spot has been producing us major bass in the past year my uncle caught a 4lb smallie here last year.

Funny you say that haha I fish Northwood Lake religiously lol. I have a camp up there and we fish it all summer last year my uncle was killing them on Jigs and Texas Rig Worms. My Great Grandpa holds the record on the lake at 8lb 14oz and 8lb 6oz large mouth on the lake. Hopefully gonna catch some big ones this year on the lake I have a few spots that I know for a fact hold some big ones on the lake.

I rigged one of the craws up to see if I did the rig correctly. Is this correct?

This is what I did pick up from my excursion though. Gonna be slaying them hogs this year just waiting for ice out. April can't come fast enough

Exactly dude I applied for a job there and didn't get it do to availability, but some of the staff my god they had know idea where anything was I helped 3 customers before 1 associate could help one. All in All though very nice store

BPS Pro Qualifier came in the mail today feels perfect on my 7'0 Medium/Heavy Rod can't wait to rip some lips on the Rage Craws. Also bought another 7'0 medium rod for my spinning combo for some Spinner bait and Texas Rig Fishing. April hurry your A** up man I am ready to fish.

Most tournaments don't allow the use of tiller motors. Mostly because they do not have a safety guard where if you fly over the boat the motor will not stop.

I just wanna enter tournaments as a non boater. I think it be fun I just can't seem to find any clubs that would accept non boaters.

I just would like to fish Winni and other big lakes more only fish them couple times a season. I fished a couple tournaments there with my uncle as well. By the way anyone know of any bass clubs that will take in Non Boater anglers to do tournaments and stuff? Would love to fish more tourneys this year I fished 3 of them in 2010 with my uncle, but I would love to get into it more.

I wanna get a bass boat. Been looking on craigslist for a used one for 1500-2500 bucks

I just can't wait to do some jig fishing. Hopefully get on some hogs

I was looking at that rod too. My new setup is a pro qualifier on a 7 ft medium heavy ugly stick. I like the feel of the whole setup and I feel like with my 6 ft medium setups for my spinning gear I lose a lot of edge with Spinner Baits and Texas Rigs which is mainly what I use. That's why I wanna get a 7 ft rod to have another setup that's ideal for what I am doing.
