Im looking to buy a new rod and reel I like only using one rod while im in my boat im not a tournament fisherman i just fish everyday but im looking for something that is good for almost any presentation i throw or something along the lines of that area if anyone can give me a rough estimate on what i should get please tell me

Ohh I do know there is big fish in my lake because we have seen a few in the shallows were just looking to see where they stage up most of the time also have you ever tried those zoom trick worms wacky rigged they seem like with the lightness of the plastic and the wiggle to it they would produce??

Lol all this talk is getting me itching to get on the water lol good thing im going up to my camp in an hour haha gonna catch atleast a 5lber this weekend im hoping

So basically I should just master shooting starting in the off season like going from 10 yards to 20 yards and even maybe 30 yards and just shoot from all angles and get my archery down pact that way come fall ill have a good shot then i can learn how to actually figure out spot placement and treestand setup for later. Also how much would a good beginner bow setup be..?

Thanks guys so during the day around 11am there usually suspended on drop offs and such I feel as though there is a place on my lake similar to what you all are saying its and island with a sand bar ledge the it just goes down from like 5ft to about 12-13ft of water another. Haha sam the funny thing is we actually have done that when we are sitting at our boat dock we catch little small ones about 2-3 inches the we hook them on something similar to a drop shot rig hook them by the tail cast them out past the bouy thing thats a decent ways from are talk and let it sit for about half hour an hour then we come back and we always have a fish but I frankly like fishing from my boat I just always fish the shoreline near docks and stuff most of the day i never really expand to much I also have an electric trolling motor on the boat which i assume should help me on windy type days

So instead of using the average 5 in senko maybe go to a 6-7 in one and just throw it in like heavy cover or places where I think a big bass would be also are big bass mostly in the shallows during the day like in heavy cover or to they congregate to deep water??

Hi guys im age 17 and im looking to start bow hunting this fall i really have no clue where to begin any help or information would be good just looking to see what type of gear ill need and a slight insight as to how to hunt

When you catch these 4lbers where about like structure related wise??

Yes there are i just dont know where to find them and I always ask myself should i try a reaction bait such as a crankbait to try to catch big fish cause i reall only use wacky rigged senkos

Hi im looking for any tips that anyone can provide is to how do I catch big bass using wacky rigged senkos these baits are about all i use and I have tons of luck just with smaller bass im looking to catch the big ones 4lb+ any help would be appreciated

ok so when im in the woods i wanna look on the ground for acorns and what do u mean by trail so say i walk into the woods the place that i feel comfortablt walknig woud be considered a trail not like a place where tress are wacking me in the face but whats comfortable for me would be good but also what about marks and stuff for deer like what would they look like if i was looking around

so what makes a good map for certain lakes and also when im reading these maps should i only look for drop offs or should i look for something more?

is there any site that has everything i need to know about scouting deer and like what determines a good spot from a bad spot and also how i should plant my tree stand but i have one question say i have my tree stand in a tree and the wind is coming from the west i would want to be facing the east right and what happens if the wind shfits the next day?

any of you guys use 1. carolina rigged lizards 2. wacky worms 3. and yammoto hula grub or spider grub my uncle tells me those are all he uses to get on top of the weigh ins he just one 5000 grand at his last tournament with a weigh in of 26.4 pounds and 8 fish total

thank you guys for all the help i most likely will be using a compound bow since i can get all of the attachments and what not on it also i so general questions 1. How do you scout for deer and how to find good spots of where they could be 2. what does down wind mean exactly and how does this affect hunting for deer 3. what should i get for my first bow and how shuldi practice for preoing for the upcoming season 4. what gear shouldi bring i have found a camoflage bag by redhead and my uncle says that should be fine but what should i pack

Anyone here also no how to read lake maps like ones that have contour lines

the one thing i dont understand though is how to identify a drop off and such on a map and also what type of map i would need and shouldi try to target a species of bass like my uncle mostly goes for smallmouths and he catches a limit but he also catches big ones so he comes out on top any ideas?

what do you guys usually do for tournaments like how do you approach them?

Well my Uncle is actually a semi proffessional fishermen and hes fished the flw tour way back in the day and i asked him what he uses and he told me all he uses to win most of the tournaments he competes in is a spider grub a carolina rigged lizard and the wacky worms but i dont understand what he does to find the fish and then catch them and he really is a jig fishermen persay because when i went fishing with him we mostly jigged all of those baits in about 10-20 ft of water but i cant determine whats a good spot and he fishes deep water also we catch alot of smallmouth any tips?

Hey guys im just wondering if you can give me inhformation on bow hunting im just starting this fall to go bowhunting and i really need some help learning the basics and if u could put down some websites down for info that would be great

Hello everyone im just wondering if i was to fish a tournament could i use abour 3 baits and still come out on top or do i have to get more vecasue i really only like fishing with 3 baits and they are all for largemouth bass since that is the fish i feel i should target for tournaments any advice would help

I had a plan to mount a 5 pounder but i didnt n0 about thi9s replica mount how is this done and is it fairly new?

Where is the southern new hampshire forum located i dont see it?

Hey guys im just wondering i live in new hampshire and im constantly looknig for big bass i have rarely any luck finding them sure i catch tons of bass but there all about 2-3 pounds the latest big one i caught was a 4 lb largemouth near some downed trees and a dock but im looking for a nice big fish about 5lb so i can mount it so if you have any lakes where you have caughtin big bass i would love to here where if you could post a pic of the bass to that would be sick
